king ubu Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Sounds interesting, thanks for the link! There's also a larger edition of her Händel: I was offered some of her Bach, guess I'll take up that offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Д.Д. Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 Bev's Baroque thread reminded me I have not heard any of Handel's solo keyboard works, so I would appreciate some recommendations. I would be interested in both harpsichord and modern piano. Are there any organ works too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) I can't comment on the quality of performance but this 2CD set has kept me happy over the last year: It got the 'first choice' recommendation when BBC Radio 3 CD Review surveyed the various recordings last year. Which means someone in the know values it. It's on harpsichord. You might be able to hear the 40 min programme here (make sure you enable 'show all episodes'). You might hear something else you prefer: http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/bal/all Look for 23 Mar 13 Edited January 18, 2014 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Д.Д. Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) Thanks, Bev. Will definitely give it a try. I started checking out Daria van den Bercken's recently released piano disc on Spotify (https://play.spotify.com/album/6LqqS3DzmG7EuHPSu3TVxQ). Sounds very nice. Edited January 18, 2014 by Д.Д.

king ubu Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 I got the Rampe disc (fantastic) and that two disc set of the Muffat edition (w/embellishments) by Pollerus. Didn't yet get any further but will keep following these threads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Д.Д. Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 I got the Rampe disc (fantastic) This is some wild stuff: ! I can understand why Domenico Scarlatti would cross himself every time Handel was mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
