Leo van Doeselaar: Handel's Organ Concerto no. 2 in B flat major, Tempo ordinario & Allegro

[NorbertZF]

A fine if somewhat "staid" or restrained performance. I find it very distracting when a keyboardist is bopping their head around while playing. I personally don't do that because I might lose my place in the music while playing. I let my hands do all the "work" of conveying some measure of authority over the music. But, to each his own I suppose.

@NorbertZF I recall reading in The Bach Reader, that in Bach/Handel's time such habit was frowned upon. Those who did this were sarcastically called "knights of the keyboard".
