Jean Rondeau Romancing J. C.

 Here is another little clip of extraordinaire harpsichordist Jean Rondeau. This is the Harpsichord Concerto in F minor by J. S. Bach's son J. C. Bach, the "London" Bach from whom Mozart first learned something about keyboard concertos.

This performance is the concerto as chamber music. They are almost playing it as if they wrote it.

And I think this is Rondeau's Rasputin hairstyle.

Love the Baroque bassoon!

This is from an album of a bunch of Bachs: J. S. and three of his sons. I don't actually think you could do that with any other family, not even the Couperins.
