I have mixed feelings about these period instruments. In a university setting, it does give the students opportunities to hear things they might not otherwise; and contributes to their understanding of performance practice. But in a church, they can be limiting. The Episcopal (Anglican) liturgy has very little in common with the German baroque, as beautiful as both are in their own rights.
