Discuss the following quotation by Alexander Silbiger (Keyboard Music Before 1700) in reference to historical contexts and approaches: “Anyone trying out early fingerings needs to realize that the fingerings are not only intimately connected to instruments and to the type of music played on them, but are also part of a total performance-practice package… The fingerings often will not make sense without the other elements of that package; thus, they will not work well on a modern piano, even when applied to early music, and they will not be very effective on early instruments if used in the context of an otherwise anachronistic playing style.”

XYZ Corp enters into a contract with ABC Manufacturing for the delivery of custom machinery. The contract includes a clause stating that if ABC is late in delivering the machinery, it must pay XYZ Corp $50,000 for each day the delivery is delayed. The actual estimated damages from a delay are difficult to calculate, but historically, similar delays have only resulted in losses of around $5,000 per day. ABC fails to deliver on time, and XYZ demands payment according to the contract clause. ABC argues that the clause is unenforceable as a penalty. Is the $50,000 per day clause enforceable as a liquidated damages provision, or is it an unenforceable penalty clause? Discuss the factors the court will consider in making this determination.
