This is very well played. It feels like you have a light touch, sounds so easy but i know it is not. You play this like a master! Thank you Unruh. Keep going!
And I'm so glad to see/hrear someone else using Salodiensis Virginal. I have used it too. I like to test all those old instruments.
Here a piece from Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, Praeludium XXll. I can't play with such a "nice touch" like you. Might be my bad keyboard partly.

I quite enjoyed listening to this rendition! I found myself admiring your arpeggiated chords--very smooth and well timed to the pace of the music. Well played!

Re: Harpsichord - Georg Böhm: Courante - Suite 1

Hallo Stig,
thank you very much for your kind words. The composition is a bit difficult to play. I have been practicing longer. The sheet music can be seen at:

https://imslp.org/wiki/Suite_No.1_in_C_...%2C_Georg)

The composition Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, Praeludium XXll is also difficult to play. Very nice recording.

Best regards
