Summary/Abstract: The topic of our research deals with a theoretical, aesthetic, as well as stylistic, interpretative approach to old keyboard instruments, from the beginnings of the Musical Baroque. In order to develop this theme, we considered it necessary, in a first chapter, to take a general look at the Musical Baroque era, with all its attributes, forms and genres, and then something about the style of its instrumental music. In a new chapter, namely, that of the evolution of keyboard instruments, through the analysis of some principles, findings or observations related to the construction of keyboard instruments, through their various examples, our research opens the perspective of musicological-interpretive investigations, which is not - could have achieved, without consulting a vast bibliographic material.
