His personal blend of traditional and popular music, Country and Western and jazz, presented on the harpsichord in a style both original and idiomatic, has fascinated audiences by its fresh approach to long-familiar music. Don's choice of the harpsichord as his perfonning medium has seemed to some a remarkable innovation, to others merely an impertinence. In fact, viewed in tenns of the long history of the instrument, it is neither. As the principal secular keyboard instrument from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century, the harpsichord was used in a much wider range of musical and social settings than it enjoys in present-day usage. The modern revival of the harpsichord for the authentic practice of art music, pioneered by serious musicians and scholars of great energy and determination, inevitably was limited in its attitude toward the possibilities of which the ins~ument was capable. This situation would have been unimaginable to the players of previous ages. Already in the sixteenth 'century, the Spaniard Antonio de Cabezon achieved in a number of keyboard settings of traditional tunes a remarkable blending of popular and art traditions. This mode was passed on to the great English virginalist school of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Major composers such as William Byrd , and Thomas Tomkins, as well as minor figures like Giles Farnaby, produced a vast number of sets of harpsichord variations, works un;urpassed in their perfect stylistic fusion of common material and sophisticated treatment, and their wonderfully idiomatic exploration of harpsichord effects. Though the products of Angle's own eclectic . music-making are .quite distinctive, the guiding spirit of his craft thus has ancient roots: Respect, for the validity of diverse musical material ,and ... $ensitive and judicious writing for the harpsichord: .
