When I first started playing harpsichord the plectra were still cut from quills. The tuner-repair person eventually found a good enough plastic material to use instead.
No, the harpsichord has a string per note, other instruments don't. You can only tune a flute to one note, for example, while the harpsichord can tune every note differently.
Generally, if there is a piano/harpsichord in an ensemble, one person (usually the principal oboist) will tune to IT and the rest of the ensemble tunes to them after the fact.
He mentioned that the temperature would change with the lighting and, I guess, the people's arrival (body heat) Interesting that the strings are that sensitive. Maybe it has to do with the stress that the strings are under (?)
A synthesizer of today’s technology will sound the same and needs no tuning. If you play a piano with a synthesizer you can play virtually any instrument. I remember my music teacher drooling over his midi keyboard.

"Dude this is gonna be sicccck"
"Just shut up and work the key for me, would you?"
“Ok it’s tuned nobody even think about breathing”
I’ve tuned some pianos with similar temperaments. 😅
I have a prickly temperament
J❤p@@clavichord
Now I know why it’s called “harp but with keys”
Cuz you spend 90% of time tuning it and 10% playing out of tune xD
I didn't know that harpsichords tuned like that. I use the same type of tool to tune my hammered dulcimer! The process sounds about the same, too.
Could you hear yourself playing a duet with a harpsichord?
They're tuned like a piano
In the middle of the concert... "hey shutup... I'm trying to tune my harpsichord" 🤣
Well tempered klavier ! 🤣
Imagine walking through the halls of a theater and hearing someone tune their harpsichord
Probably quite a common occurrence wherever there’s one that gets played
Not to mention it has plectrums instead of mallets so the strings are stressed that much more

The magic of the harpsichord has a nitty gritty of painstaking tuning toil...
Watching this makes me thankful for my casiotone. I won’t take it for granted.
Beautiful instrument
I can only imagine then that the orchestra tunes to the harpischord.

Yes, the orchestra tunes to the harpsichord.
@@EnchWraits what does that have to do with anything?
@@jorgeandrade20 you can't tune a flute to a harpsichord. You have to tune the harpsichord to the flute.
@@KieraQ0323Exactly!
Thank you for putting the Jadoes in your mixes! They are my favorite Japanese City Pop band next to Omega Tribe! They are super underrated ❤
It reminds me of those old miniature piano they used to give to kids back in the day
I sometimes tune my harpsichord and it is so perfectly tuned, that I am fraid to play it! LOL
Where can you buy harpsichord
makes me wanna go tune my guitar, so satisfying
The video doesn't say why the harpsichord needs constant tuning. 😢
Please present tuning per se of other instruments of the orchestra. Thank you.
Per se

I see you learnt that ancient Chinese song

I love harpsichord
Is it like a guitar where once the strings are worn in they behave better?
The first seconds sounded like Castle Vein
You didn't even explain why
Thank you for explaining why a harpsichord needs to be tuned all the time....... oh wait.
marvelous, how old are you?
he was just flexing his perfect pitch
Is this at Carnegie Hall?
Was it
Nah it q Elizabeth hall
Nah, he needs more practice to get there.
I thought it was gonna transition into a sick edit
Is this dude just tuning this harpsichord BY EAR??!!
Luckily enough it doesn't really need tuning all the time. But yeah, it gets quite boring, at least for me 😅

C’est le cadre en bois, un piano à cadre en bois aussi nécessite 2 a 4 accordage par an
When I'm at orchestra hall in Detroit they tune the 9ft pianos every time they use them. Big deal
Crazy train riff on that thing?
I feel like the harpsichord would fit incredibly well in metal.
@@tktspeed1433 check out FantasMic by Nightwish!
Ahh, yes.. practicing falling bass lines 😊
I HATED tuning the harpsichord in college
Now I feel like I was in a horror movie or something like Stanley Kubrick's eyes wide shut 🏰
ngl i thought you were vinhetero for like 5 seconds XD
"when I am laid am laiiiid in earth may my "
Despite this flaw, I still find it superior to the piano in terms of tone quality. 😅
Wow!, I wish to perform baroque pieces with you.
You tune it by ear?
Isn't that how most instruments are tuned?
Do you actually have to do this?
And people complain about strings going out of tune on Gibsons.
Jarak dua oktaf ke atas
Get Lurch to play 😊
You can tuna harpsichord 🎹
But you can't tuna fish. 😁🐟
I wanna just secretly tune it all at random while nobodys watching
That's probably why it's 1 semitone lower 😂
Ok but WHY?
Because he is the impaired brother of the piano.
But unlike the video title it did not answer the question as to why that is
If you sniff the seats they smell like money. At lot of rich people sit in those seats

this does not really explain *why* they go out of tune so easily.
Why not just have the ‘pianist play a half step down?
