mikeweil Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) More music on Cristofori instruments - simply great in all respects: The original instruments are no longer playable, but Kerstin Schwarz makes meticulous reconstructions of every detail - see her website for information: http://www.animus-cristofori.com/en/ This is the type of recording that makes me ask myself "who the hell wrote this piece" - and the answers are always a surprise.The history of keyboard music in the 17th and 18th centuries is much more complex and varified as most people think, and full of fascinating discoveries, especially among the composers coined as "pre-classical" - a totally unapropriate label. Edited August 30, 2017 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) And now, the first recording of a type of instrument that had to be reconstructed from the surviving two copies Cristofori built, combining the string length of two 8" harpsichord  registers with the compact build of a spinet - a beautiful looking and unique sounding instrument!

mikeweil Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Selections from the "Darmstadt Harpsichord Book, played on a great sounding copy of a Mietke harpsichord. Soly delivers a much more convincing picture of Handel the virtuoso as most of her colleagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 JPC was selling several Praga SACDs for a buck a piece ..... Sounds great, and some of the best Debussy orchestral works rendition I have, very detailed, but not as analytical as Boulez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Me, too, just got the last two volumes missing in my collection along with the Handel disc. This is the kind of project that makes me wonder how little German harpsichordists care for the legacy of their own country. During the last twenty years, the majority of neglected German keyboard music of the 17th and 18th centuries was recorded by Italian or American harpsichordists.
