Apropos of Scaratti's sonatas find singular
blunder in Rubnstein's st. Petersburg lect-
ures "Scaratti wrote many sonatas for the
clavcembalo as well the less cdntdoHe

cymbal the brilliant movements on the clavi-
chord" The names of the instruments should
of course be reversed. The clavichord was
capable of a singing tone the harpsichord was

1t seems strange that RubinSten should have
erred here, but even DR.. Oscar Paul seems to
have been ignorant of the mechanism OF the
