Before the modern concert grand, there were quieter voices of wood and wire. These old keys tell stories. Edward F. Rimbault's classic study of the pianoforte's origin, progress and construction journeys through the entire history of keyboard instruments, from the delicate clavichord, virginal, spinet and harpsichord to the early pianos that transformed European musical life. Written by a pioneering 19th-century musicologist, it stands as a foundational piano history book and an indispensable musicology reference book for anyone drawn to the sound-world of baroque and classical keyboard culture. Rimbault combines technical insight with historical narrative, tracing the development of the pianoforte as an instrument of craft, science and art. Alongside his study of early pianos and the wider history of keyboard instruments, he includes a rich selection of early keyboard sheet music: authentic pieces composed for keyed-stringed instruments that bring vanished instruments back to life under the fingers of modern players. For music historians, performers, instrument makers and for antique instrument collectors, this volume offers a rare window into 19th century music history and European piano development from the perspective of a contemporary scholar-collector. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, it belongs equally on the desks of researchers and in the hands of curious pianists discovering where their instrument truly came from.
