Welcome ....![[Photo of Ed Kottick]](/graphics/ed_kottick.jpg)
Welcome to my web site. Let me tell you a little about myself. I'm a musicologist, retired from the University of Iowa in 1992. I'm still actively engaged in scholarship and just completed a book on the history of the harpsichord (released in May, 2003). That instrument has been the object of my scholarly attention for more that 25 years. I've written a number of articles and reviews on it, and presented papers on early keyboard matters at many scholarly conferences. For almost 15 years I was involved in acoustical research on the harpsichord, and have done articles and presentations on that topic as well. I've written six books, three of which deal with the harpsichord. And of course, as an agent of Zuckermann Harpsichords International, I build harpsichords (and clavichords), too.
On this web site you'll find some details about my research, teaching, lectures, harpsichord building, and my general involvement with early keyboard instruments. Enjoy the surf and please come back to visit! |
