This piece is from “My Ladye Nevells Booke of Virginal Music “ 1591 by William Byrd.
This unusual octave harpsichord is copied from a 1543 instrument by Dominicus Pisaurensis, which is on display at the Musee de la Musique in Paris. There is a second original octave harpsichord, by the same maker, from 1546 at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna.
This instrument was built by my husband, Donald Rogers in 2023.
