Fretted Clavichord after Christian Gottlob Hubert 1787


Organ and clavichord building go hand in hand for Hubert. On his later instruments he was allowed to call himself "Hochfürstlicher Anspachischer Hof-Instrumentenbauer". His contemporary Johann Georg Meusel wrote about him in 1786: "He is a very small man of quiet and noble character, somewhat hot-tempered and stubborn, and extraordinarily accurate and punctual in his work."
