My reading of the sleeve notes on my old vinyl copy of this is that it is
implied that he does use period instruments, although this is certainly not
explicitly stated. The sound he produces on these pieces also would suggest
that he does. Not conclusive for your purposes, I know.
Best wishes,
Geoff.
