Description

La Fondation harmoniques a organise en avril 2002 a Lausanne une Rencontre Internationale de musiciens, musicologues, facteurs d'instruments de musique, restaurateurs et conservateurs de musee.

Ce sont les instruments a clavier: clavicordes, clavecins, pianoforte et "Tangentenflugel" qui ont ete au centre de ces quatre journees de reflexions et d'echanges d'experiences.

Les sujets de reflexions furent prioritairement les techniques de fabrication, les couleurs sonores et les instruments a clavier en relation avec Bach, Haydn et Chopin.

Les auteurs des differents textes de ce volume proviennent de milieux qui se completent et peuvent mutuellement s'enrichir.

Certains d'entre eux ont enseigne la musicologie et la connaissance des instruments au sein d'universites, d'autres ont entame une carriere de facteur d'instruments apres avoir acheve leurs etudes.

C'est la conjonction de l'observation scientifique, de la connaissance des sources historiques et de la pratique artisanale qui constitue l'interet principal de ces communications. In April 2002, the harmoniques Foundation organised an International Congress in Lausanne of musicians, musicologists, instrument makers and restorers, and museum curators.

The four days of exchange, discussion and debate focused on early keyboard instruments - clavichords, harpsichords, fortepianos and "Tangentenflugel".

The emphasis of the various contributions was on instrument-making techniques and the keyboard instruments associated with Bach, Haydn and Chopin.

The authors of this volume are specialists in different but complementary fields; some have taught musicology and organology in Higher Education, others have pursued careers as instrument makers following their graduation as B.A. or M.A. The interest of these papers lies in the unusual juxtaposition of scientific observation, research in historical sources, and practical instrument-making.
