Description: Specialist in the 17th and 18th century Art of Acoustics. Maker and acoustic restorer of harpsichords, clavichords, fortepianos and violins working in Manchester, Michigan.
Since I began building instruments, I have made more than 447 instruments for professional musicians and serious amateurs alike. Most of these harpsichords, clavichords, violins, guitars, and fortepianos continue to serve music as I intended them so to do when I made them. My chiefest aim has always been to build sounds which inspire a way of playing that deeply moves and excites listeners. This aim can be realized only by acoustical work of the highest quality. I define quality as anything which makes my instruments more like the antique instruments.
