Alina is the virtual embodiment of this instrument. Brilliant.

good but less narcissism please. its not a MTV music video.

Lovely and stylish performance! Why so many negative comments? If somebody dislikes something, they should post a clarification! As a professional harpsichordist, I find this performance impeccable from all points of view: technique, articulation, mini-rubato, overall recreation of Sweelinck style. Well done!

Certainly the best rendition on youtube. The only debatable aspect here is the clip, but the music is superb.

[edgardusXII]

Indeed, a very graphic presentation, but I think I'll pass on this artist's rendition.

@TinekeSteenbrink You're being a bit harsh there. This certainly works for me.

[TinekeSteenbrink]

Flow my tears...?

What flows here are perhaps more the fast, modernistic semiquavers than the profound Dowland Pavane - in a tick too far gone, quasi gothic mix of spooky black-painted draculism and perceived narcissism.

Is it Dowland transcribed by Sweelinck?
