Digital Dance

A seminal account of the plucking keyboard by David Kinsela heard in Renaissance dances (Memmo, Attaingnant, Newman, Byrd, Facoli, Gardane) and Baroque favourites (Bach’s Italian Concerto, Rameau’s Les Tendres Plaintes, Handel’s ‘The Harmonious Blacksmith’ Suite), using an Italian virginals of 1629 (the oldest instrument in Australia) and an English harpsichord of 1763, both from the Powerhouse Museum. Five of the sixteen tracks feature percussion by Michael Atherton (spoons, tabor, tambourine, bells, wood block, bodhran).
