Dora Petry - clavichord
A live performance that makes you want to kill the idiots who had their cell phones on and who coughed loudly, but a fine performance.
Robert Hill, fortepiano
Sofya Melikyan, modern piano
Dmitry Shelkin, marimba (Warning, the recording is at a very close, loud volume level, don't use earphones and you might want to turn the volume down.)
All of them are good performances, the one for clavichord is the most idiomatic, I think.
Update: Oh, and I can almost guarantee you that the clavichord, if it is a new reproduction, is likely the least expensive of the instruments of that quality and, by far, the smallest of them. Though it's quite possible if it's an historical instrument it might be more expensive than the marimba. A fine, concert hall quality Steinway is mighty pricey these days, as is even a fine reproduction fortepiano.
