At the age of ten he was an accomplished organ player, and he played with skill on the flute and the clavichord.
He sat down at the clavichord and sang what he had composed in honour of the Princess.
Her ability as a performer on the clavichord was something remarkable, and she left behind her a number of works for her instrument.
In France, many of the earliest clavichord pieces were of the programme type, and even in Germany, where instrumental music ran practically in the same groove with church music, the same tendency showed itself.
Like many songs of this popular genre, its text treats the clavichord as a confidant for the poet's sorrows.
Most of the clavichord lieder of the late eighteenth century were printed in keyboard score, with the text between the treble and bass staff.
I'm now in the frame of clavichord expression, very intimate clavichord expression.
Assuager of my cares, softly consoling clavichord!
