J.S. Bach French Suite No.5 Mvt 4: Gavotte (Live)

I really like the accents and full length notes. This instrument was difficult to play as interpreted!

@daasvand

... you be trollin...? A harpsichord cannot vary its pitch length, nor play accents.

[daasvand]

@solieusflame okay, i am not good with terms, i meant the difference between stacatto and legato. or sostenuto, i know the harpsichord does not have a sustain pedal either but you can still sustain notes. i like the way you you play. by the way, what musical term is trollin? i hope it is a positive comment ;)))

@solieusflame Now I am really interested in this:) it just depends on what length of note it is, quarter or half..etc. for example, I heard someone play a song from Bach on a harpsichord at the university. It sounded okay, but choppy! On cd I have, the song was more flowing, the notes were held longer. I want one, but I just found I would have to buy a new car first! :( You are amazing and most likely an excellent proffessor!!!

Fine playing of this sprightly dance. The pulse is strong, just right for the music. And a beautiful harpsichord. George Becker, San Francisco
