Here they seem to be using A=470Hz, around one semitone above modern standard (440) pitch. Many baroque ensembles use A=415Hz, ones semitone below standard pitch. For those used to 415, this key sounds like D minor instead of C minor which is the original written key ... one whole tone above the original key. But it's only a question of tuning.
@LadyofMetal16
yes, the original score is down of a semitone....

@Orlymusicboy
this is the modern instrumentation A 440Hz, originally (baroque instruments) is A 415Hz
that's the semitone difference
I don't know if I make myself understand :S
