Harpsichord

  Play Now [1:15:00]

January 25, 2018

This week we're going to party like it's 1699 -- because Jake Rudh is going to feature an instrument that was widely used in music back then: the harpsichord. No, it's not an hour of baroque and classical music (find that on Classical MPR), but Jake will feature the harpsichord used in rock and roll through the years, from the legendary artists who helped revitalize the instrument back in the 1960s to the indie acts keeping that sound alive today.
