We met in Nice, at the bicentennial of the Erard double-action harp. Like many serious collectors, the first thing Jakez says is \u2018I\u2019m not really a collector\u2019, but you need to be very knowledgeable and to have a good eye to arrive at a collection like this. The harps have been well-preserved in Mouzeil, and in Ancenis we will see many of them exhibited for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo curate the exhibition, I first went to Ancenis to see the space. It\u2019s a great size, not too big and not too small, with four connected rooms, which gives us many options for how to organise the visit. It\u2019s necessary to measure the space carefully, to decide what to put where, and then study the collection itself. We looked at every harp, measured and photographed them &#8211; this is of course particularly important for the harps that are not signed. You also have to study the condition (some of the harps are restored, some are not), and some have missing elements like stringing, which makes it hard to show them. You also have to follow each instrument\u2019s individual history, via their serial numbers &#8211; find out where they were made, when and for whom, which also helps you to understand which harps are the most important to exhibit. And then, you write the catalogue of course.<\/p>\n<p>Having chosen the instruments, you must consider the best way to present them to the public. Do you want them in chronological order, or rather in geographical, or grouped according to their organological features? We have mostly done the latter, so that the visitor can appreciate the differences in the construction &#8211; although we do also have a beautiful room of African and Asian harps, so that\u2019s a more geographical focus.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21515\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 300px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21515\" src=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Collection Camac, Ch\u00e2teau d'Ancenis\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisone.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photos: Vincent Jacques<\/p><\/div>\n<p>What is particularly unique about this exhibition, and which you will not find elsewhere even among the biggest collections, is that you can track the history of the Celtic harp. Celtic harp history is complicated to curate organologically because it is rooted in a much older tradition, but very few instruments remain from pre-revival times. What everybody recognises as \u201cThe Celtic Revival\u201d began in Paris and Brittany in the 1950s, and there is quite a lot of documentation and of course instruments from this period onwards. However, this is in fact a second revival, stemming from a first revival before that, when in July 1792 a group of harpers gathered in Belfast to try to preserve their dying tradition. This is the time of the John Egan harp found in the Camac Collection.<\/p>\n<p>Another very satisfying aspect of curating a harp exhibition is the fact that unlike all other instruments, the harp continues to be highly decorated. This makes it delightful for the general public, but it is also of organological value. Pianos, and indeed all instruments, used to be decorated, but this practice stopped in the middle of the twentieth century. These days, you do not expect to see anything other than a black piano in the concert hall. For whatever reason, this did not happen to the harp. For example, some of the oldest harps in the Camac Collection are French harps from before the revolution &#8211; the time of Marie-Antoinette, hence our exhibition\u2019s title \u201cFrom Marie-Antoinette, to the Present\u201d. The Naderman and Cousineau harps are in a typical Louis XVI style. They were designed to match the furniture! In other words, they were made to remain in a salon and not be put away in a case. The Mozart flute and harp concerto would have been performed in this context.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21518\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 300px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21518\" src=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Camac Collection, Ch\u00e2teau d'Ancenis \" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2017\/06\/ancenisfour.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photos: Vincent Jacques<\/p><\/div>\n<p>You can also track various changes and developments through the evolution of a maker\u2019s decorative style. Erard did away with the traditional scroll-top, and invented the Empire\/Grecian, neo-classical harp style, with a rams-head pattern on top of the column. This was highly fashionable at the time, and swiftly imitated by all the other makers. It can be hard to tell one make apart from another, unless you study the mechanism. Or, Pierre Erard (S\u00e9bastien Erard\u2019s nephew) invented the Gothic harp. It was bigger, louder and its decoration has the Gothic cathedral style that was popular at the time. You see this decoration appearing in the USA, Germany and the United Kingdom, copying Erard.<\/p>\n<p>In Germany at the turn of the twentieth century, you also see a very interesting decorative phenomenon. L\u00f6ffler made very fine harps, including just two in Bauhaus style. The Bauhaus philosophy is that form follows function. The functional elements of the harp are therefore very present, and made to look very beautiful &#8211; big, shiny screws, for example. From our Bauhaus harp\u2019s serial number, we know that it was sold to the Deutsche Oper in Berlin, so it was clearly a high-quality instrument. Thurau still makes a Bauhaus model, as heir to the L\u00f6ffler tradition.<\/p>\n<p>I think you can also see, throughout the progression of the exhibition, where Camac stand as heirs to Erard. Of course, many harp makers can be seen as following in Erard\u2019s footsteps, because his double-action patent is still the benchmark today. But Erard\u2019s mechanism was not his only defining feature: he was also an incessant inventor and researcher, constantly seek to improve the harp\u2019s sound and design. When I watch Jakez work, there is a positively obsessive quality I also associate with S\u00e9bastien Erard. The title of the exhibition is \u2018to the Present\u2019, but maybe it should really say \u2018to the future\u2019. The adventure is not yet over.<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not one realises it, as performing musicians we are also always in touch with the music of the past. If you get your scores out of your bag, you will probably have some Bach &#8211; classical musicians, your lives are to be in touch with history, and an art form that comes from generations ago. It\u2019s humbling to set oneself in the progression, and see that the course of history doesn\u2019t stand still.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can download the\u00a0catalogue below &#8211; but\u00a0it&#8217;s even better to come and see the collection for yourselves!
