Did you know this is actually FAKE
NEWSBACH? It's a Vivaldi transcription. Bach's harpsichord---transcribed or otherwise---still rocks though; my all-time fave is BWV 1052 (Trevor Pinnock's performance is definitive IMO).If you want to hear a spicy, contemporary interpretation of Bach, check out the Evan Shinners post I made last week. It's not a historically accurate performance like this post is, but I think his style is incredibly energetic and refreshing; I'm a stan. I wish I could upload his rendition of 1052, but I'm worried about the copyright cops.
Awesome! I wish that recording of Evan Shinners was better, since you can tell his articulation is great but it doesn't really come through. Listening to BWV 1052 now.
Yeah the recording is kind of echo-y.
I uploaded that piece anyway. Let's see if I get arrested.
Imagine how rich your noble who commissioned your music bust be to have FOUR harpsichords
