The 6th Fortepiano Academy SACLA Pre-concert
Gala Concert with 6 keyboard instruments
2024/07/12(Fr.) 18:30 Starting
The 18th century saw the invention of the piano and a gradual generational shift in keyboard instruments from the harpsichord to the piano, which was invented by Cristofori in Italy around 1700 and introduced to Zilberman in Germany, where it was used to strike strings with hammers. There were various other instruments with a percussion system that allowed the volume of sound to be varied by the touch of the fingers, in addition to the fortepiano. The clavichord is an instrument in which brass pieces, rather than hammers, strike the strings and push them up to produce sound and vibrato. The Tangentenflugel has an acceleration lever behind the keys that sends a tangent of a piece of wood flying and striking the strings. Based on the Christofori-Zilberman type action, the German Stein develops a flip-up action, which strikes the strings with a lighter touch. The fortepiano made by Walter of Vienna, who inherited this mechanism, became very popular in Vienna at the end of the 18th century.
The concert will feature works closely related to these instruments, and the six keyboard instruments lined up will create a delightful picture scroll of 18th century keyboard music history.
