September 28, Saturday 2002 A programs of four of J.S. Bach's
(1685-1750) Brandenburg Concerti - No. 1 in F Major, No.3 in G Minor, No. 2 in F
Major and No. 4 in G Major. Directed by David Itkin (who also played the harpsichord) All pictures may be enlarged by clicking picture
The harpsichord is that family of keyboard instruments which
are plucked, not struck, by the key mechanism. It has served as the major string
keyboard instrument for substantially longer than its descendant the piano, and
still is much in use, both in early music
performance and in various new applications.
