@hsingmin Yes. Bach transcribed the Vivaldi Concerto for 4 Violins in B minor (from his Opus 3) for 4 harpsichords. I guess Entertainment Lawyers didn't exist in the early 1700s (lol)!

Isn't this a Vivaldi Concerto in B-minor?

you are "preaching to the choir" as I have a musicology degree and am an early music performer. All of your information is already known. thanks for the reply.

The first fortepianos are from 1695, Bach was 10. It is however known that bach did not writhe for piano although he admired the technique used for the instrument. To combine harpsichord and piano is another matter, there survived some combi-instruments from bachs time that indicate musicians/composers where searching for a combined use of these instruments. If one likes the result is personal taste, but combinations where made in the 18th century.

wait a minute. the fortepiano was nowhere near Back when this was composed. Even if it was, all four soloists would have been on either piano OR harpsichords but not both. Although Giardino and the LaBecque sisters are wonderful musicians, this performance comes out quite strangely because the pianos are louder than the harpsichords. Can't help thinking Bach was looking for a "sharing of the wealth!"

These sisters are something else.

Ok, you have a degee, I don't. but I thought that Bach tested the Silbermann pianofortes twice and the second time he liked it? So i think it was an interesting thing to combine the harpsichord with early pianofortes?
And please keep the tone amicable, this is only about music isn't it?
