Established in , when Morris Steinert presented to Yale his collection consisting chiefly of keyboard instruments, the Collection grew slowly for over half a century largely through donations from alumni. In the Collection was moved from its original location under the dome of Woolsey Hall to its own building at 15 Hillhouse Avenue.
Since the Collection has nearly trebled in size, today comprising nearly one thousand instruments, the majority documenting the history of Western art music. Of course, this being a Yale institution, they opted to go for the far more clever word. And my hat is off to them. Once we were welcomed into the building through the stuck door with a big smile and a quick overview of the collection, lights were turned on for us and we were free to roam.
We entered a darkened room full of old bells. My parents met while in the University marching band together and my dad rocks the trumpet at that same church to this very day.
My brother was a fairly accomplished trumpeter. I, on the other hand, was miserable every second I so much as thought about playing that miserable beast of an instrument. I better get back on track before I break down in tears…. It was pretty darn impressive, I must say.
There were some really, really old bells here. It was crafted by the Lurs who were semi-nomadic tribesmen. When a warrior and a horse died together, they were buried in the same grave with their weapons and equipment, including many bells of high copper content. That other bell is a Swiss cowbell from I can speak from experience that the Swiss enjoy rather large cowbells. Along the way, we stopped at the Col de la Columbiere and hiked around.
And there were docile cows all about with giant Swiss cowbells!

Man, I would like to go back there and eat more croissants. After the roomful of bells, we moved on over to the other first floor gallery. Here, the permanent exhibit of European and American string and wind instruments is located here. It had a cool alligator-head thing on the top of it. I guess bassoon players need any edge they can perceive to try to look cool.
Bassoons, flutes, clarinets, violins, other sorts of string instruments from antiquity. This room had it all. They even have a violin crafted by none other than Antonio Stradivari in The room was definitely pretty cool. Take, for instance, the clavicytherium pictured here. But as anyone could easily discern, the octave span is too small for even a child mm, as compared with the standard Italian octave span of mm.

Disgusted, we ascended the stairs to hit the rather huge keyboard gallery. With its excellent acoustics this gallery is also used as a hall for the annual series of concerts, many of which feature the keyboard instruments that have been restored to fine playing condition. They have recitals up here all the time, which you can check out yourself by clicking the link below.
After a short while, we were joined by the docent who, honestly, was probably fearful of our antics and immaturity. She happily showed us around and explained a few of the more unique pieces.

Amazingly, some of the frailest keyboards were of playing condition and are used in the recitals. Did I mention our immaturity? Do I have to at this point? The one housed here is from Antwerp and if you learn anything today, it should be that a double virginal is a rectangular harpsichord with two independent keyboards, set side by side, and two independent sets of strings.
You can listen to its ear-splitting twang in the links below. In fact, it was pretty darn cool for this very non-musician. We were fortunate to have the guide open up a bunch of them and show us the intricate craftwork and paintings on many of the keyboards. She did seem a bit confused by the fact that neither of us knew anything about them, nor how to play them as I figure most visitors at least have a little experience.
Again, my ignorance shone at my lack of awareness when it came to the spinetta made by Francesco Poggio and the harpsichord by Pascal Taskin. This instrument is representative of the school of piano making established by the Augsburg maker Johann Andreas Stein, whose instruments were championed by Haydn and Mozart. Back down the stairs we noticed another small display. A bunch of little plastic instruments called Tunettes.

I currently study with Matt McGarrell, who directs the Big Band and teaches classes in jazz history and composition, and privately study jazz theory and performance with Ed Tomassi of Berklee. In addition to music, I also study electrical engineering at Brown. My general plan is to play for as long as I can on top of another job, and to open the door if opportunity knocks. Some other highlights of my musical experience are playing at Blues Alley in Washington D.
