Suite in C minor composed by John Sheeles (1695-1765), of whom very little is known. The suite is the first of 'Suites of lessons for the harpsichord or spinet - Book 1' published in 1724. The Jigg is rather 'Corellian' I thought.

Instrument: English harpsichord by Peter Barnes
Tuning: Vallotti - a' = 415 Hz
The harpsichord is built according to the English tradition and closely based on a 1709 harpsichord by Thomas Barton (in Edinburgh Univ. Collec.) and a c.1715 spinet by 'Keene and Brackley'. The paintings are closely based on another English instrument, the 'Coston Harpsichord' (in Edinburgh Univ. Collec.).
