@PhilosophyExp I resemble that remark! (Harpsichord player here)
It's got to be said that the harpsichord isn't the most dynamic of instruments. It's the gerbil of the musical world. #justsaying

@Dianora_1 Probably you mean you *resent* that remark, unless you're telling me you look like a gerbil/harpsichord... :) -

@PhilosophyExp tis a joke expression on this side of the Atlantic. I forget sometimes short form for I play harpsichord ;-) -
@Dianora_1 Ooops. Given that I've been living in Toronto these last 5 years, maybe I should known that! :) -

@PhilosophyExp *g* I'm in Ottawa. I am surprised you hadn't heard it. -
@Dianora_1@philosophyexp We use it that way in Blighty too. Do try to keep up, Jeremy ;-)

@PhilosophyExp It is a beautiful sound. The durn thing gets out of tune if you just look at it though. -
@Dianora_1 It's fair to say that my remarks about the harpsichord did not attract unanimous support...! -
@PhilosophyExp tis ok There are tricks to get the illusion of dynamic range on the harpsichord but it is nice for chamber music
