Birth - Sam Shepherd (aka. Floating Points) - performed on the ExpressiveE Osmose
At the same time as reviewing the @ExpressiveE Osmose for @soundonsound magazine, and as part of learning how to play it, I made a few recordings with the instrument. This is the first, of the beautiful 'Birth' (2019) by Sam Shepherd. So many possibilities... Preset was 'epiarom'. Reverb from a Dr A by @audiothingies

So I guess that's the Bosendorfer of harpsichords (it goes down to sub-contra F).
What an impressive beast, and played by a truly gifted artist.
Incredible engineering, instrument, music and artist!
Magnificent Thank you!!
Amazing sound! Love it.
The rich tonality of this instrument is marvelous! Also, beautiful studio! Great performance, thank you!
Everything about this is breathtaking: Your registrations and performance on this superb instrument, Bach’s sublime mastery of the idiom. Thank you!
This genre often bores after the third or fourth variation. Not here! Thank you, Robin, for this imaginative, engaging performance.
Gobel Goble Goble 🦃
awesome harpsichord and very well performed, just the right speed in my opinion, not to fast.
Thank you! I love the 16' in the fugue. Would have loved some arpeggiation too...
Wow, a rare treat: use of the 16' register which fits the music and sounds good.
Dieses ist das beste Cembalo mit einer fantastischen Aufnahme des La Folia C.P.E Bachs von Robin Bigwood, das ich je gesehen habe. Danke fürs Mitteilen!
where does the transcription of the ouverture come from ?

OMG! What a beautiful instrument and Sound
What a rich and deep sound! I want to listen to so many baroque pieces on an instrument like this!
woooow !!!! 😍😍😍😍😍 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Here is another triple manual harpsichord, built in about 1983, by Keith Hill and Philip Tyre, then of Grand Rapids, MI. It, too, is a magnificent instrument: ruclips.net/video/UNQ-sUvSiV8/видео.html
Still too much jack nose. I've come to the conclusion that I'll never like the German instrument... Give me a little Italian spinet anyday...
Beautiful!! Incredible talent........I shouldn't comment about this but....wow. in the close up at 0:38 I could see Gene Wilder back in 1971...Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. LOL Sorry.
My instant reaction to this is that I vastly prefer the sound of the Goble/Gotto instrument to the Hass. Beautiful job. I wish that Mr. Puyana could have lived to play this instrument.
wow, what a powerfull sound
What a special instrument. I never knew three manuals existed. Just lovely. I played in college and would love to get back to it ❤ Thank you for sharing 😊
Wish I could afford such a beautiful keyboard
Brilliant, sincere, and masterful interpretation!. And this harpsichord is a stunner! What a success for Alan finishing it up!
Suono superlativo!!!!
Fantastic performance and instrument but I would not like to have to tune it
2:42 0.75 speed
BRILLANTEZ ASOMBROSA!!!!BELLISIMO!!!!Grandioso HAENDEL.... BRAVO POR EL INTERPRETE Y EL MAGNIFICO INSTRUMENTO!!!!!!!
This is mind-blowing! Wow, wow, wow!
only swiss musicians can afford that sort of instruments. Sad.
Virtuosic and thrilling! Bravo
Please explain the decorations of the accidentals. Strange.
Absolutely exquisitely.
its a good advance for the limitated dynamics of the clavichord, but i dont understand very much of this.. the first keyboard is Forte, the second piano and the third is pianissimo?
Пуленк и Ландовская были бы счастливы!
Great instrument. Great music! Thank you for the story!
I just needs a matching pedal-harpsichord!
what a majestic sound this thing makes, i feel there could br so much potential with this instrument
Just how low does that thing play??? Am I really hearing the F below the modern piano's lowest F??
Yes! F0, or 32' FFFF! There's another video of this harpsi being played where the low-F is more demonstrably played.
It seems to be theoretically possible, then, to have an GGGGGGGG 256' @@organist1982, which gets us into the range of Richard Bobo's "Gigarackett" joke-instrument.
Really love the classical taste of FP
This is fascinating but I'm still wondering about the decoration of the sharp keys. Is this copied from the original Hass instrument? Does anyone know what it represents, if anything?
Given the complexity of this instrument, I'd have quite liked to see captions explaining which stop is being used!
Weird posture at the instrument.
The ultimate instrument would be if a harpsichord like this was combined with organ pedals under the feet.
Bravo Mr. Bigwood. Not everyone could exploit the variety of possible sounds on this wonderful instrument as well.
A beautiful instrument. However, another copy was made by Robert Goble & Son. The original Haas was owned by Rafael Puyana.
The story I heard from Andrea Goble himself, is that Puyana ordered the harpsichord but then couldn’t pay for it. That one was bought by Henry Hood in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Imagine having to tune and regulate this instrument. I'd be too exhausted to play after that. I'm happy with my single manual Flemish with its 1x8 and 1x4 stops. I assume Robin has someone, perhaps Alan Gotto to tune it . I love the nasard and lute stops. The original Haas instrument was owned by Rafael Puyana.
Hello! Could you please post pictures and a video of nasal jack and its stringing? 7:07 for reference. Should nice a closer view of these rare stop
Spectacular
