Charlston, T. (2023) A perspective on historical keyboard playing in the UK. Harpsichord & Fortepiano, 28 (1) ISSN 0953-0797 (print) (In Press)

Abstract

This contribution to the 50th anniversary issue of Harpsichord & Fortepiano magazine considers the recent past and future of historical keyboard playing in the UK from variety of perspectives. These include the preoccupations of emerging talents, the parallel inter-relationship of digital and in-person performance, integrity and choice of instruments, the ubiquity of historical performance approaches, the recent emergence of multi-keyboard virtuosi, and the urgent need for support of, and investment in, the skills which enable Historical Keyboard makers, technicians and performers to progress and flourish.
