anyone quickly give me an info site that analyses this piece by tomrrow?

[NamikazeH]

This sounds so joyful! It's refreshing. Handel is my favorite composer, something about his music attracts me.

[TheVanya1900]

I'm a pianist, Handel is my favorite composer, I play this on the piano :)

I have the CD; my favorite performance of this.

[wimniewenhuijs]

Great performance!

[chocosoph]

the ending could very well be an electric guitar solo... was what I was thinking to myself. and a second thank you for the name of Paul Nicholson --- thank you!

[fgarnold]

Let me second the earlier kudos given on ornamentation & phrasing - uniformly brilliant choices. Wasn't previously aware of Paul Nicholson, but I certainly am now.

Also impressed by the instrument and it's "clean" sound - would love to know what it was.

@fgarnold

Duh! HARPSICHORD.

Or maybe you asked 'Which harpsichord?'

As for 'clean', Equal Temperament was invented after this music. So a harpsichord was tuned to a specific key and the music was written for an instrument in a specific key. So - 'clean', no fudge on harmony.

[jfhdragonfly]

Thank you for sharing the beautiful music, no matter WHAT key it's in!

[lewars1912]

Well said.

[HansVonBulow]

In the theme, your ornaments and phrasing are original, interesting, and delightful.

[stefomate]

[HARMONICO101]

Baroque tuning. A=415 Hz

[unvmoi]

This is my favorite movement from this suite.

It's so creative and original.

[mikejunior80]

True.

[mikejunior80]

I guess I'm not the only one who possesses perfect pitch.

[stefomate]

i dnt have perfect pitch ive just trained my ears to know all the notes.

thinks its better i dnt have perfect pitch kuz music wud just sound like noise to me if i did

[Jenson111]

great sound on the harpsichord, I'm playing a transcription of this for trumpet, but playing it on my baritone! It's actually got a variation that isn't on this recording too, so we'll see how it turns out! Difficult piece

[HARMONICO101]

An extra variation???

[Jenson111]

Well not necessarily an extra variation, but in the transcription to trumpet the third variation is changed a little bit. I mispoke before, it's actually just different from the one shown.

[HARMONICO101]

Ah, I see!

[Pianoloverok]

You are great!!!!!!!!!!1

[wolfgangmartin]

Magnificent sound of the harpsichord.
