G F Handel "Allegro" from "The Cuckoo and the Nightingale”, Organteq

This piece of music is perfect for using all three manuals in Organteq alternately - Positif, Grand Orgue and Récit. Maybe interesting.
The Cuckoo and the Nightingale, HWV 295, is an organ concerto in four movements. The second movement uses bird song motifs corresponding to the birds of the title. The Cuckoo and the Nightingale is one of Handel's better known organ concertos and has often been recorded.
Birds in baroque music!  Wonderful

Here is my way of using the keyboards and the registrations. As always, I have to record play with headphones, living in a flat. It sounds a bit different with my speakers…
I tried to give a vision that some birds are further away and some closer in the forest.
It was fun to play this piece of music

Cuckoo vs Nightingale - What's the difference?
As nouns the difference between cuckoo and nightingale is that cuckoo is any of various birds, of the family cuculidae, famous for laying its eggs in the nests of other species; but especially the cuculus canorus , that has a characteristic two-note call while nightingale is a european songbird, luscinia megarhynchos , of the family muscicapidae.

Stig, this is very impressive playing. Your use of dynamics and registration do give the impression of birds heard in varying distances.

Enjoyed this!

Can't wait for the next one.

My best,
