Ufffffff... so boring... what a drag... always the same exact things... so dear Dave, in case I haven't explained myself well enough, I'll try again: regarding music, but not only that, the shallow reasoning behind grades is a subject that generally, being often dry, sterile, dull, and nonsensical in my humble opinion, does not spark particular interest in me; therefore, I prefer to talk about something else, perhaps focusing on the essence of things, leaving to others the certainty - as well as the presumption - of a correct, objective, and indisputable mathematical calculation, which, I'm sorry, does not find a place in my mind. Bye

Endless not like a river but like an ocean, more or less what Beethoven used to say, right Grass? :)

ps I've just regained the desire to listen to those concerts, what a wonder the adagio of the concerto for three harpsichords and strings ... even when the dialogues between the solo instruments happen in solitude...

Well, it’s clear that there’s no discussion about "de gustibus," but I believe it’s important and interesting to know and understand how certain music was conceived and performed, also to sense its original charm, so to speak, intended by its author. Then, on the level of de gustibus, I discovered these sounds first in an orchestral context, so to speak, training myself, and then moved on to listening to the solo harpsichord. I must say that now, as it stands, I appreciate listening to it without this conflicting with other performances that I also enjoy.

Come on, reevaluate the sound of the harpsichord, maybe by listening to the wonderful (!!!!!) concertos for 3 and 4 harpsichords by Bach, performed by Trevor Pinnock and The English Concert (Archiv edition), and then try the harpsichord solo.

almost copy and paste "I love Pink Floyd and I have their entire CD discography" and something on vinyl, "as a confirmation of a love that has evolved from adolescent to mature..." and I also saw Gilmour’s PF back in '88, but this album just doesn't exist.

I discovered them on debaser (thanks kappa), it's not exactly my genre but when I need to stray from the safety of my usual paths it's the perfect listen, thanks for reminding me, haloa :)

Mullah, I understand what you mean, especially because for a long time I was a devoted reader of the magazine "Orfeo," which heavily emphasized the importance of philological interpretations. I actually quite like the sound of the harpsichord, and I must say that after attending a concert with original instruments in Austria a few years ago, I developed even more enjoyment for this type of listening. I certainly do not shy away from non-philological interpretations; let's just say that for me, they can coexist well, knowing that their premises are different.

But not even Montgolfieres Socrates? Another chance at least for that record beyond this one, which is different in continuity with the previous ones though. Hi :)
