"Welcome to Harpsichords Wiki!
Begun by: Patrick Frye III
composer/performer/teacher

NOTICE: Please contribute SEPARATE pages for opinions that might differ from existing posts. Changing a WIKI is NOT just for an opposing viewpoint--Besides EVERYONE would want to see ALL or BOTH positions before a final decision on the subject. Prove your better academic approach and respect for the work of others with YOUR OWN Contribution, rather than simply altering someone else's contribution. After some time and many involved, a MUCH better site and resource regarding the harpsichord will be created by EVERYONE and less bias will be observed as well as all the historical permutations that have existed and have been used and studied involving the instrument, the music and tunings.
