Listen to David Sutherland on his 44 year journey from building harpsichords to replicas of the earliest pianos.
Sometimes your plans get disrupted. Sometimes you take a leap of faith.
That’s the story of David Sutherland.
He started as a musician.
“Years after I had finished a PhD in musicology at the University of Michigan and had taught for four years, I couldn’t get a job. And I decided, well, hey, teaching didn't work out so well," he said as he sat at a harpsichord he built.
It's been an interesting journey since.
