Die Aufnahme-Tonqualität der Streicher ist leider unbefriedigend.

Very nice Glenn! I love you!

I hope everyone commenting knows this piece was originally a violin concerto that was transcribed into an organ concerto (BWV 146) and then much later transcribed into a harpsichord concerto. Oh yeah and the violin concerto was lost. It was never transcribed into a piano concerto. Bach did not even see anything piano like until he visited Fredrick the Great in his old age. The title of this video is very misleading.

I think people just need to accept that this is a completely different work when played on piano. Compare it to harpsichord recordings and it's like comparing a romantic concerto to a heavy metal band. Everybody can have perfectly valid preferences, but one can't be declared definitively better - they appeal in different ways.
