Laiton Rouge Historique Malcolm Rose
RED BRASS is a 90/10 brass to match the usual 18th century specification; in harpsichords it will give the best possible focus to the sound in the bass. Italian harpsichords, though, are an exception to this rule; generally, the drier quality of yellow brass is more appropriate. |
