from CALDERA in TURIN; Nineteenth century.<\/p>\n

Luigi Caldera, (Cuneo (Piedmont) c.1835 \u2013 Turin 1905) is an Italian engineer specializing in acoustics. We owe him several inventions mainly in the field of keyboard instruments.<\/p>\n

With the \u00ab\u00a0M\u00e9lopiano\u00a0\u00bb, he invented a system of repeating notes of astonishing speed, the possibilities of which he developed with his \u00ab\u00a0Armonipiano\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n

As for the Calderarpa, it uses part of its mechanism to adapt it to the harp. The low notes are played by hammers and the high notes by felt-covered wooden \u201cfingers\u201d operating the strings diagonally, in a position comparable to that of a performer on a classical harp.<\/p>\n

Only a few copies of Luigi Caldera’s keyboard harp were made in collaboration with the Bologna piano maker Giovanni Racca.<\/p>\n

A model is in the museum of Nice, another in the Metropolitan Museum of New York\u2026<\/p>\n

Signature along the console: \u00ab\u00a0Patent – CALDERARPA – Patent – Torino\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Green lacquered cabinet decorated with gold leaf with floral motifs.<\/p>\n

Two effect pedals.<\/p>\n

Keyboard composed of 43 steps veneered with ivory and 30 feints in ebony. (Fa-fa)<\/p>\n

Height: 176.8cm.<\/p>\n

Width: 120.5cm<\/p>\n
