EXHIBITION
- The world's largest early music fair!
The largest Early Music Exhibition of its kind! A wide cross-section
of early instrument makers from around the globe, shops, music publishers,
societies, recording companies and early music forums all gathered under
one roof. This is the perfect opportunity to compare, contrast and hopefully
buy the instrument you had always promised yourself! Exhibitors will
show off their products in front of experts and clients and provide
advice on all aspects of these instruments from basic servicing, finishing
and string replacement to decoration and troubleshooting.
An array of superb instruments will be on display and for sale including
harpsichords, clavichords, spinets, organs, viols, baroque violins,
mediaeval fiddles, lutes, harps, hurdy-gurdies, crumhorns, shawms, rebecs,
