Customer Reviews

This recording is a bit "too hot" for me.

This recording is a bit too "hot" for me sound wise. Almost overmodulated! I feel that Bach should be more pristine like, not as heavy handed.

I agree with JWCCP, it sounds too "hot". The performer sounds competent enough but i'ts hard to tell given the production value. -Bz

Harpsichords have a bigger color palette than you may think!

The notes that go 'boing' in variation 25 are the sound of the lute stop, or lute register, of this phenomenal harpsichord, which has more color possibilities than a standard harpsichord. Staier expertly utilizes all the options available to this instrument (authentically modeled after 18th century German harpsichords that Bach himself may have known and played) to create a unique soundworld that really makes this 1.5 hour piece come to life. Trust me, the standard 'pretty' sound of the harpsichord may be nice...but after about an hour of hearing pretty G major in one sitting, you'd think otherwise.
