Nice instrument. The keyboards are beautiful and the tone is very nice.
In choosing an instrument to play Scarlatti and Soler, though, I'd have made one or bought one that had a high-g'''. I think that there are 26 sonatas that require a g''' in Scarlatti and a pretty significant # in Soler's works, as well. Obviously, this is one of them.

Nice! What kind of harpsichord is this...?

Nice playing. I love me some Soler...too bad he isn't more well known. In the shadow of Scarlatti unfortunately.
Your camera doesn't seem to be picking up the bass notes very well...or maybe the instrument itself isn't ideally balanced? Then again, I tend to go overboard when voicing my basses. I love them to boom out :)
In any case, the overall tone sounds great. Good job on the instrument.
What temperament are you suing, if I might inquire? Valotti, methinks? Or Equal?

Thanks for the comments! I think the lack of bass is mostly due to the cheap microphone I'm using. Like you, I like a nice booming bass on my harpsichord. I've tuned it using a Valotti temperament for the time being - good ear!
