Visit the workshop of harpsichord maker Martine Argellies and discover the craft behind these historic keyboard instruments. Several harpsichords with a wide variety of tonal characters will be on display and available to hear.
Discussions during the visit will cover the technical means used to achieve such richness of sound: what constitutes a musical sound, how it is produced, and how the diversity of timbres relates to the musical repertoires the instruments serve. Open across both days of the European Heritage Days weekend.
