Wood Carving Partita on Harpsichord ~ Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (Michiru Yamane)

Описание к видео Wood Carving Partita on Harpsichord ~ Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (Michiru Yamane)

My dad built this harpsichord for my grandmother about 40 years ago, and it ended up stored in my garage for many years before I decided to set it up again and try my hand at some recordings (pun intended?) I'm glad I rescued it from it being sold on Craig's List in an attempt by my dad to clean out our storage area!

A harpsichord is a TOTALLY different animal from a modern piano. For one, the mechanism of sound is a metal tab that plucks the string, rather than a hammer hitting it. Imagine using your fingernail to pluck a string on a guitar, and that's basically the sound a harpsichord makes! Harpsichords generally only have about five octaves of keys- if you're a pianist, you may notice that baroque composers never wrote their keyboard music with really high or low notes. Harpsichords also have much finer strings and tuning pins than a piano, which makes the tuning a lot less stable. I struggled just to keep the instrument in tune to record this piece! I was quite impressed with how well my microphones captured the sound though. I did literally nothing post-production to the recording.

Well, I hope you enjoy it and please give me your feedback! Would you like more? If so, what other harpsichord pieces would you like to hear?

THANK YOU David, for putting together this video!
