This well constructed Hubbard design Taskin French double manual instrument was built by Richard Luce in 2011 to 2015. Finished in figured cherry with piano black accents. It has a matching cherry music stand and bench.
“Regarded as the most successful general purpose harpsichord” the French double manual harpsichord is an instrument of elegant proportion and detail. With a range of five octaves, FF-f” (61 notes), three ranks of jacks, 3 choirs of strings and a buff stop, this instrument is especially suitable to all of the harpsichord literature of the Baroque. The keyboards are replicas of Taskin’s keyboards having ebony covered naturals.
A matching fluted tapered leg apron stand in the mid 18th century style supports the harpsichord. French - style arcades. White derlin jacks and plectra.
