Luthéal Piano
"L´enfant et les sortileges", "Tzigane" - those are just two works by Maurice Ravel which make use of the luthéal. The luthéal is probably one of the rarest piano instruments in existence – with only one original instrument being left. Invented by the Belgian George Cloetens, it uses a grand piano as its basis and allows to change the tone of the piano by applying the Luthéal mechanism. Built in 1922, it has been completely restored and resides at the Musical Instrument Museum (mim) in Brussels.
Edition Beurmann - Orphica Piano
Die Orphica Piano-Library bietet ein besonders „Klavierchen“: Erfunden von Carl Leopold Röllig, wurde es exklusiv von Klavierbauer Joseph Donal Ende des 18.Jahrhunderts nur etwa 15 Jahre gebaut. Infolgedessen gehört das kleine, tragba-re Hammerklavier mit seiner ersten Repetitionsmechanik zu einer sehr seltenen Gattung – höchstens 30 Exemplare sind weltweit erhalten. Dem Namen nach an die „Lyra des Orpheus“ angelehnt, dessen Ähnlichkeit Röllig in der Orphica sah, ist das Instrument ein Vorläufer zum heutigen portablen Keyboard.
Edition Beurmann - Italian Harpsichord III
The Italian Harpsichord III library features an instrument built around 1690 by an anonymous maker. Featuring three sounds – a front and a rear 8’ register as well both together – it allows for the traditional rich and slick Italian harpsichord tone, of-fering additional flexibility by choosing the adequate 8’ or using the gentle 2 x 8’ combination with its inspiring and complex harmonics.
Edition Beurmann - French Harpsichord
The French Harpsichord library features a double-manual instrument by renowned French builder Nicolas Pigalle. The instrument – built in Dijon in 1771 – features an “enchanting sound with singing clarity and a substantial bass”, as Professor Beur-mann explains. These qualities - along with its huge tone which also manages to bring out its deli-cate, sophisticated finesse and detail – make it is an excellent representation of the French style. “It is one of only two surviving harpsichords from Dijon, a city once so rich in musical tradition, the other also being by Pigalle.”, he continues.
Edition Beurmann - Italian Harpsichord II
The Italian Harpsichord II library features an instrument built around 1590 by an anonymous maker. Being very typical for the Italian style, the instrument features a housing seperated from the painted cabinet. Furthermore, the instrument - which had been owned by the Australian opera singer Joan Sutherland - sports a special feature: The housing is not bearing directly on the cabinet, but on two ledges below the ribs. This allows for the under-body to resonate.
Edition Beurmann - English Spinet II
The English Spinet II library features an instrument built by Benjamin Slade in London around 1705. Slade´s spinets were essential to the history of the instrument. He had apprentices such as Thomas Hitchcock (see English Spinet library). The sampled instrument shows the qualities for which Slade is known, offering a very sweet-sounding yet majestic and brilliant tone. Only one spinet and one harpsichord of his instruments has survived.
Edition Beurmann - German Lautenwerck
The German Lautenwerck library brings a long-gone instrument into your sampler: The Lautenwerck - or Lute-Harpsichord - was one of Johann Sebastian Bach´s favourite instruments. Despite 50 Lautenwerck builders in Germany, not a single instrument survived throughout the centuries. When the instruments had vanished, the awareness had gone as well: Only a couple of decades ago, musicologists found out that such an instrument had existed, solving the mystery of scores mentioning being written for Lautenwercke. Until then, one would have guessed that the composer meant a regular lute instrument by that notion. When the knowledge of it had resurfaced, Professor Beurmann had a reconstruction built by Ludwig Richter in Ludwigsburg, Germany.Instrumenten
