Bach Concert No 5 for Harpsichord and Strings Largo (Blanchet Harpsichord)

k c Paul Li  uploaded a beautiful performance of this Largo with piano. But it was originally for Harpsichord, orchestra - not piano.

So, I wanted to try with Blanchet Harpsichord and imitate the orchestra pizzicato with left hand. When listening to an orchestra of this piece on yt, the violins are playing pizzicato, so that’s my left hand here.

Well, my version - hope you like it, with some mistakes, I am not at my best right now (not playing at the best of my ability…..)

I recorded this piece several years ago with strings too, using an old Roland. But I don't have strings pizzicato in my Mac mini daw, sorry. But it could be so nice for me to use these strings with Ptq Petrof Mistral Warm. I hope I can do it in future. The second piece after Largo is one you don't have to listen to, couldn't cut it away.
