Okay, this is the second movement from BWV 1056, the Largo. The harpsichord (performed by randomonlooker) has the buff stop activated which makes it sound a little like a lute. I adore the sound of the lute stop, heh. I chose to have the strings play pizzicato, sorry to all you musical purists. It's a little romanticised as I said before.
All the same, I hope you enjoy this little concert~ Stay tuned for more! I'll probably get the last movement up tomorrow.

Pretty. I've always found pizzicato to be cool-sounding. :3
We had our concerto competition today, and as I expected, we've got more violin concerti to do in the future. We're doing one of Prokofiev's in April, and one of Saint-Saëns's in November. There's also a clarinet concerto but it's by Copland and I'm not in it. XD

Well, in the Romantic era you pretty much had only three choices for a concerto, a violin, a cello or a piano. Could explain why I've been performing a crapton of them. XD
I don't know if we're doing Prokofiev's first or second yet, once I get the part (or I ask the soloist himself) I'll know. The soloist doing the Saint-Saëns Intro and Rondo Capriccioso is the same one who did the opening movement of the Brahms Violin Concerto we did back in November.

Well, many harpsichords had the stop, it;s not usually specified in the music where to use it, but I figure that if you wanted to have a quiet section or a sweeter tone somehwere you would. Harpsichords sometimes have two manuals so you could have one with a buff and the other without and freely swithc between them. The lautenwerck is an interesting instrument to listen to for the perfection of the lute sound on a keyboard!
