Mahan Esfahani is a musician, and an unusual one. He’s not a pianist, violinist, cellist, or even a tuba player: He is a harpsichordist. Jay talks with him about his life and his instrument. William F. Buckley Jr., a devotee of the harpsichord his entire life, would have loved this.

    Fascinating as always.  I love learning about musicians – and, in this case, their instruments.  You do a fantastic job with these interviews Mr. Nordlinger.

     Personally, I prefer to hear musicians play than talk – but this interview was interesting. 

     The bit of Bach at the end was very tasty.
