. . . And I've seen Hoppy fire off several bars by Piccinini on modern piano to 
demonstrate phrasing a line during a master class . . . by ear . . . and then 
transpose the same by half a step on the fly to accommodate A at 415!  He tried 
to demonstrate it on the 5-course guitar with which he was traveling, but in 
his stringing, having access to no lower note than g, he didn't find its 
representation of that line (originally descending into archlute diapasons) 
satisfactory.  All in good fun.

Best,
Eugene

I forgot who mentioned Hoppy and keyboard.
BUT,
I have seen him play Dowland on keyboard, with my own eyes.
