@kenkim5 Don't knowho said "on the spot"
Correct. I practice my "improvisations" well before performance.

@robertgift "improvising on the spot" is redundant. And if you are practicing your improvisations then they really aren't improvisations are they?

thanks for uploading. I'm sure the people behind you really appreciated your glowing iPhone. Too bad you couldn't just enjoy the moment without employing your gadget.

I love the harpsichord, and this seems well played, but the sound quality is not good enough (not helped by my developing deafness in my right ear).
I am sorry but I must give this a miss
-
@robertgift Yes, to the second part, don't agree with the first part.
-
@ZoeEGrace Glissandos are noise.
But a rapid chromatic scale istunning.
-
@robertgift To you they may be. I find the occasional glissando thrilling on a harpsichord.
-
4:29 Wow...Glissandos on harpsichord...
Cool!
-
@robertgift 1974? oh yes, during the mid 20th century knowledge on baroque music was truly the penultimate ... =p
Wonderful.
I don't recall a glissando in the score.
I like Reger's version on organ better.

@robertgift If you pretend to find in the scores all the elements of a baroque performance, poor you! It seems you're totally foreign to baroque music...

Thanks ! It's always nice to hear the Master in live (Although it's not his best one ;) ! So rare on Youtube.

@KapustinIsGOd Yes, Koopman's concerts are always very exciting: here, he really enjoys leading everything he plays very close to improvisation... think of that never heard "glissando", for example...
