Nice web site. I am puzzled by the following in the
description of the Arnault instrument:

"Arnaut is specific that the proportion of the natural key
is such that the length is twice the width. Such short keys
require a narrow octave span as can be seen by measuring
any keyboard with short keys. "


Am I missing something [a marble, maybe?]
