@evolutionist11 I tend to agree about "authentic" instruments. When listening to "authentic" performers such as Andrew Manze, who often sounds so harsh and strident, I think a 20th-century sensibility has been foisted off on us as representing the time of Bach. The Age of Enlightenment, the 18th century, was about harmony and beauty, not an astringent "realism."

Great Russian poet Osip Mandelshtam has devoted these verses to Galina Barinova.

Вертлявой, в дирижерских фрачках.
В дунайских фейерверках, скачках
И вальс из гроба в колыбель
Переливающей, как хмель.
Играй же на разрыв аорты
С кошачьей головой во рту,
Три чорта было - ты четвертый,
Последний чудный чорт в цвету

Утешь меня Шопеном чалым,
Серьезным Брамсом, нет, постой:
Парижем мощно-одичалым,
Мучным и потным карнавалом
Иль брагой Вены молодой -
Hello Truecrypt! Thanks so much for all that you post. I guess we could say that this is a more old school perf. Original instrument folks would look down on this, but you know what? This has Heart and depth more than most of those. Today, some of us lose sight of that. Take care, Ken.

Hello Ken;
The question of "authenticity" is a tricky one!
One can play Bach on 18th century organ, learn all manuscripts, tune to original "temperament" and still be a poor performer. On other hand Bach can be performed by Swingle Singers and it will be more "authentic" than scientifically correct playing. As long as it touches your soul, it's authentic.
