This fortepiano is after an original by Walter & Sohn, c.1805. It is expertly crafted by world-renowned maker Paul McNulty. His instruments are famous for their performance quality and are housed in the most prestigious concert halls, opera houses and educational institutions. This fortepiano has a five and half octave range from FF to c4. It has a moderator and sustaining knee levers. This instrument is highly attractive and is made from walnut. Dimensions: 221cm x 108cm x 32cm (approx.) Weight: 97kg (approx.) Padded transportation cover, leg bag and flight case complete with heavy duty wheels included. About Walter & Sohn Anton Walter (1752-1826), who had the title Chamber Organ Builder and Instrument Maker in Vienna , was considered to be the most famous fortepiano maker of his time. His improvements in the Viennese pianoforte action remained the standard for many years. He built about 700 instruments which were praised for their quality by many famous musicians including Mozart, who bought a Walter in 1782, and Beethoven, who nearly succeeded in buying one in 1802. According to Mozart’s son Carl: Most remarkable is the wing-shaped Pianoforte for which my father had a special preference to such a degree that he not only wanted to have it in his study all the time, but exclusively used this and no other instrument in all his concerts, regardless of whether they took place in court, in the palaces of noblemen or in theatres or other public places. Walter was born near Stuttgart in 1752 and became active in Vienna in the early 1770’s. In 1800 his stepson joined the company and the firm name was changed to Anton Walter & Sohn . Apart from extending the keyboard range, all basic proportions and tonal concepts were retained until his death 1826.

TPW Italian Neapolitan Single Harpsichord Kit by The Paris Workshop supplied in kit form for home assembly. TPW Italian Neapolitan Single Harpsichord Kit - 4 9+1 notes: C–c''', transposable A392/A415/A440 The Neapolitan Harpsichord was inspired by originals by Bocalari dating from the end of the 17th-century. The case is in poplar with a spruce soundboard, and is of "false inner-outer" construction, tricking the eye into believing that this is an instrument resting in an independent external case. This conceit is enhanced by the contrast of the inner natural wood against the painted exterior. Our case is built in traditional Italian manner around the bottom, with the sides reinforced by knees and framing. We use the expected 2x8' disposition of the Italian harpsichord, without buff. The two unison choirs are permanently engaged, and while there is no provision to change registration, one can move either of the traditional boxguide registers to disengage a choir, perhaps to facilitate tuning. The keyboard of the original had a short octave bass, but we took the opportunity to extend the bass to fully chromatic from C. The instrument is delivered with a lid and fallboard, music desk, and a turned stand in traditional Italian style. This exciting harpsichord has a precise touch, and a bright and pure sound with pronounced attack. It makes an ideal continuo instrument and provides inspiration for the incredible solo Italian keyboard repertoire. Harpsichord Kit Options: Version 1 standard, ready to assemble, including stand and music desk Version 3, soundboard installed Version 4, all woodwork completed Other options available to special order – please ask for details.

TPW Flemish Single Harpsichord Kit after Ruckers - 56+1 notes GG-d''', transposable A392/A415/A440 without loss of d''' The harpsichords built by the Ruckers family were famous throughout Europe in the 17th- and 18th-centuries, their clear and precise sound as much admired then as now.

Its tuning is stable, and the transposing keyboard permits performance with either baroque or modern instruments.

This style was mostly the result of later builders enlarging the earlier instruments to make them correspond to the demands of the 18th-century.
