"The Persistence of Sweelinck" by SF Christo. Daniel Glover, piano

"The Persistence of Sweelinck" by Christo Bresnahan. Daniel Glover, piano. This is the Ballo del Granduca dance used by Sweelinck. I became obsessed with his variations about 12 years ago. The elements of theme were processed by me through a surreal dream-like state as in Dali's more distorted and wicked paintings and the facial distortions of portraits by Francis Bacon. E.g. the long notes kee...

    *Re: Harpsichord in modern times* There was a revival and the harpsichord is often used when they are trying to recreate the original sound of the musical piece as the composer intended it. Talking about Bach and Mozart, because the piano wasn't invented yet in their times. A few of my absolute favourites: *Handel: Harpsichord Suite No. 7 in G minor HWV 432 - 6. Passacaglia* *Harpsichord Concerto No. 5 in F Minor, BWV 1056: II. Largo* Although if you just look up the name of the composer + harpischord you'll find many more.
