Ital. Harpsichord after Pertici 1681, 2 x 8‘, HH - e3, 3 x transp.,1910 mm, waxed, on stands
The one manual harpsichord according to Giovanni da Pertici, Firenze 1681 (cembalo da theatro)
The developped harpsichord from 1681 shows some specials which can be find again on South German and South French harpsichords: both bridges are situated (like on virginals) on an activ soundboard and the ribbing is almost rectangular below the bridge. With compass C/E-f''' and two registers everything points to a "cembalo da theatro", that means an instruments for accompaniment. The soundboard grain is as on lots of Italian instruments not 90° but 82° to the keyboard. The rebuilding has been extended to the full octave in the bass and provided with transposing possibilities 392/415/440 Hz.
