Harpsichords, Spinets, Virginals, Clavichords and Fortepianos |
Thomas Ciul has been a builder of historical keyboard instruments for over 20 years. He specializes in small instruments that have been largely ignored by other builders, particularly pianos, as well as being a builder of the larger French and German instruments. He has done remarkable work on early pianos. The Clavichord/Piano and a Schmall Recumbent Harp piano (from instruments in the Metropolitan Museum collection, New York NY) are examples of his re/creations.
Restoration and reconstruction of early keyboard instruments are important services offered by this shop. Many instruments have been restored or upgraded to excellent playing condition. A copy of a specific antique instrument can be made per your request.

Yes, we are brothers and we all build harpsichords. We think it is a genetic defect. |
