@fugeman18 Many years ago, in the days before the Queen Elizabeth Hall and the Purcell Room were built here in London, the Royal Festival Hall's monthly programme leaflet had enough space in it for what they called the "Meat and Poison Department", in which they regularly reprinted two or three pairs of comments taken from newspaper reviews of recent concerts expressing diametrically opposite views. So we are not the first to disagree - shall we just agree to differ?

@geminian7846 Well simply put, I disagree with your comment that he is unmusical... Tis good and beautiful the Dalton recording, but I believe this has the same merit. Different key and pedal strokes for different folks :P

@fugeman18 In the light of your comments, I have listened again and my opinion has not changed. It sounds as if this was a live performance, so one must make allowance for the odd fluffed note, though most could have been avoided had the performer not gone all-out for speed. To me this performance still seems brash. Get hold if you can of James Dalton's performance (~1966) on the Frobenius organ in the chapel of Queen's College, Oxford. It's a little scholarly, but always clear, always musical.

@geminian7846 Obviously you are used to slow enourmous-roomed cathedral recording and players... You simply are a one eared listener! This is what you would hear as an organist would hear playing as a true baroque musician AT the organ (no echos). Thats why you will only hear praise of Ton Koopman from other organists. You seem very ingnore-ant, and seem to be one of these JeaLoUs types trying to stir political rouse to how you want this music and organ to be heard according only to you.

Grande Ton! Peccato per l'audio ma da quanto ho capito è un live, quindi, va bene lo stesso. Viva Tonvs phantasticvs!
Le prime due battute sono tutte sbagliate! Capita, non è facile. Comunque lo Stilus Fantasticus è strepitoso.

@claudiogiuseppe Stia attento, ché se scambia per errore i caratteri specifici di un'esecuzione secondo prassi barocca, è lei a sbagliare!
