In her recording for PASSACAILLE, the Italian harpsichordist and organist Federica Bianchi deals with the development of music for keyboard instruments from the beginning of the 15th century to the beginning of the Baroque period. The earliest works come from the famous Codex Faenza (ca. 1400-1420). Bianchi plays this repertoire on three instruments that were built based on historical models: a clavicymbalum based on a design from the first half of the 15th century and two harpsichords based on Italian models from the 16th and 17th centuries.
