A22 Publication in honor of Grant O'Brien

To celebrate his 70th birthday Grant O'Brien hosted a concert for 2 harpsichords in the Chiesa del SSCrocifisso of Castel St.Pietro Terme (BO). On the occasion, he presented two instruments in Neapolitan style created in collaboration with Graziano Bandini. Sergio Vartolo and Matteo Messori played works by Domenico Scarlatti and J.S. Bach.

Not coincidentally the meeting of organologists, harpsichordist and music scientists on June 12 2010 suddenly went out for the conference, with numerous suggestions for new research. The manuscript of the history of the keyboard was presented to the honoree as commemorative.
