Yeah, Willard Martin is a good friend. Besides being brilliant, he's a very interesting person and a very kind man.

I wouldn't be surprised about Bach and his Lautenwerck. I just don't know much about it. I'm going to have to pester Willard with questions about this.

I have a Zuckermann kit that Willard worked his magic on. (He calls it "Martinizing" them! lol)

Have you ever spent much time with a harpsichord 4'? Annoying little things--they stay in tune for about 10 minutes, and they are difficult to tune! This harpsichord has one, but I usually only bother with it when I'm playing a recital. But hey, if you want one, have fun!

That sounds like quite an instrument you're dreaming about! You'll have to find someone to make it for you. . .

Forgive my short answers, I'm pretty tired at the moment. Was up til 4am last night writing arrangments for Xmas. . .so I think I'm going to bed on the early side tonight.
