Jean Rondeau, the French harpsichordist, performs Domenico Scarlatti’s mercurial Sonata K. 175 A Minor: Allegro, offering a first taste of his new album, released on 19th October. It is devoted to 20 of Scarlatti’s endlessly inventive sonatas - he wrote some 550 of these compact, colourful and captivating works. wnrcl.me/ronde...
“When it comes to music, dishonesty simply has no place - there can be no falsity,” says Jean Rondeau. “Harpsichord repertoire is about unlocking a past language and figuring out how things were done back then - not so much about finding something new.”

two things, the performance is damn near perfect, and i bet its stylistically superior though i've only heard 3 others play it, he plays at the proper speed, fast, and illustrates a kind of dance movement, a lot of appropriate staccato, and made an excellent choice in playing the harpsichord, which has that bite that a soft piano doesn't not to mention, the video. what a phenomenal video. well shot, the shot of the hands, and hiding the face up to a certain point, kind of humorous as well, really stylistic

@nothingisreal6816 3 года назад

Almost every Rondeau video has this quality, both from the performer and the video crew. Jean truly is an energic player which, for me, makes him one of -if not- the best harpsichord interpreters out there.

I adore Domenico Scarlatti's keyboard sonatas and hold quite dear the performances of his pieces by virtuoso harpsichordist Igor Kipnis. For many decades I thought Kipnis take on Scarlatti was unequaled until listening to Jean Rondeau energetic and breathtaking performance of his works. What privilege for us to listen to such a musical gem played so brilliantly!

I first heard, and was instantly smitten, when hearing Lurch play the harpsichord on the old Addams Family TV show. Lurch had such rapturous body English and facial expressions while playing the harpsichord. Then my sister's boyfriend Ivan gave me a tape (remember tape recorders?) of the Bach D minor harpsichord concerto. My fate was sealed. Similar thing happened when I heard a pipe organ for the first time, age 6, at St. Matt's Cathedral in Washington, D.C. Feeling the pews vibrate with the bass pedal notes. Will never forget that.

Sound a bit more as a piano or a fortepiano, and is also different from the ones I know... have a pal who is a professional harpsichordist and his harpsichord sound as the Trevor Pinnock or Kipnis or Rousset ones, not at all as this one!

NONE of Scarlatti's 455 other sonatas resembles K175. It has some 5- and 6-note chords (the thumb covers 2 white keys). Great rendering. Rafael Puyana, Genoveva Galvez, and Judith Norell also play K175 quite well. If you like eerie sonatas, try K443 (only by Puyana); K444, K120, K119, K184, K365, K531, K519, K218, K99, K61, K56, K50, K31, K27, K25, K22; slower: K54, K58, K253, K84. Galvez's album that starts with Scarlatti's Fandango (the other tunes there are amazing). Antonio Soler's Fandango (prefer Puyana).
