Finally a complete recording on the instrument preferred by father and son, although one can sometimes hear that Yuan Sheng was conventionally trained on the modern piano. The short commentary (by Joris Potvlieghe, who built this clavichord) on the instrument and its importance for teaching is nice, but no commentary on the music, so the listener does not even know which pieces were compoed by Teleman and Richter, or Wilhelm Friedemann (in collabroration with his father).

The recording was made in a rather spacious room, contrary to the liner notes pointing out the intimacy of the settings for the clavichord at home. Are audio technicians afraid of this intimate, rather small sound? Why want to make it sound bigger than what it is?
