Early-Baroque Keyboard Instruments The Cimbalo cromatico and Other Italian Keyboard Instruments with Nineteen or More Divisions to the Octave (Surviving Specimens and Documentary Evidence) Christopher Stembridge In an earlier article1 it was demonstrated that the cimbalo cromatico was an instrument with nineteen divisions to the octave. Although no such instrument is known to have survived, one harpsichord and a keyboard from another instrument, while subsequently altered, show clear traces of having had 19 keys per octave in the middle range. The concept was further developed to produce instruments with 24, 28, 31, 3, and even 60 keys per octave. With the exception of Trasuntino's 1606 Clavemusicum Omni- tonum, none of these survives; documentary evidence, however, shows that they were related to the cimbalo cromatico, as this article attempts to demonstrate.

W. NORTON AND COMPANY NEW YORK ē LONDON W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program— trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W.
