Harpsichord after Giovanni Maria Giusti (1690) by William Horn, Brescia

Harpsichords differ stylistically very much. This is an Italian one-manual instrument from the end of the 17th C. which is appropriate for the realisation of the basso continuo, but it may also be employed for the performance of solo works from Italy.
