Couperin - Les Barricades Mystérieuses (high)

[otterhouse]

I was wondering what "high" ment in this case (being Dutch and all:) Very nice performance in the higher octave...

messalabr,there is nothing wrong with the playing. The higher octave on piano suits this piece, like the subtle, delicate character of the period harpsichord original. "much too irregular and fastened"?, it's called rubato and expression, I hope you know! I'm sure the player is perfectly capable of the robot-like clock tempo you seem to raise as a standard, but instead chooses to make the piece live and breathe instead of becoming a human wind-up music box...please look for a musical ear...

i find the performance a bit too fast

[FernandRaynaud]

agree!

[messalabr]

Your piano is not well suited for this kind of music...and your playing is too much irregular and fastened...please look for a teacher...

Nice embelleshments. The melody comes through nicely. Not easy to do with this deceptively simple piece.

[Zera1991]

So beautyful! So nice piano!! I always would like to have a white piano, is my dream!! A Steinway & Sons Luis XV model grand piano!! NICE performance

The higher octave seems to make the notes clearer, or it sounds 'happier'. A very nice rendition.
