Thanks to febfefnrff for the link to that much superior version which comes with a great interview. Watching that and this prompted me to post under another of her videos: I think these static one-camera videos which are most of hers with no shots of her hands really sell her short. Yet the sound and photography for the Soler Fandango video (the one with the trains behind!) are the best I have ever seen for a harpsichord. Quite jolting. That one video shows just how remarkable she is. Also she talks well in one version. I just saw Tine Thing Hesseth at Carnegie Hall and after she was done with 2 concertos she took the microphone and explained something, and she apparently does that now after all performances. (She also had bare feet! A golden gown and bare feet. Audience loved that also.) By the way the most searched Scarlatti piece I believe is his Fandango. Might she...?!

My admiration is still at the same level.
Brilliant and at the same time erotic.

Thank you. Great interpretation here and interesting interview before.
Much prefer her Bimhuis recording.
interesting piece, played fairly well, but recorded badly on an instrument that needs some upkeep
too fast in various parts interpretation lessens
Nonsense. Too fast. Loss of expression. Study Spanish folk music and the dance of the Fandango centuries past. Luck to you
@@PhileasFogg disagreement at its fullest
@@nicoangel690 Agreement to the 9th degree (to the original commenter).
This performance is atrociously bad.
