An absolutely divine and fantastically spirited conception - and an execution to match! What beauty and energy, Louis C!!!! Are you there? Did you hear Marco's playing of your Piémontaise?! Pretty special, isn't it!!!! Just musically overflying Everest!
This is harmonically nuts! Augmentend chords, false relations, alterations on dominant chords... Jazz musicians know nothing of dissonance compared to this. Wonderfully played!
Absolutely magnificent performance. You truly understand this music, and the joy with which you perform is infectious. Fine choice of instrument, also. May I ask who made it?

@@cruscante no ! His mother was Louise of Savoy, duchess of Nemours and Bourbon and was born in the Ain region. And the French music of Couperin is French even if there is no nationality in music. Sorry !
@@antoinemozart243 Bien sûr, Couperin's musique est tout à fait française. Merci de m'avoir corrigé au sujet de Louise de Savoie, que dans un excès de nationalisme je considère italienne car savoyarde. En effet, le Piémont et la Savoie, régions francophones, ont peu en commun avec l' histoire générale des autre régions historiques d' Italie ( Lombardie, Veneto, Toscane...)
The cat in the doorway seemed to like it, so do I.
So noble, and richly scored. Beautifully played, and the harpsichord is sonorous and balanced.
Incredibile ❤

Benissimo
My favorite harpsichordist.
Questo pezzo è stupendo! Gli abbellimenti poi sono fantastici!!
Eccellent articulation, technique, inégales, verve ... Bravo!

A very lovely piece! And your playing is excellent, by the way.
WOW!!! Bravo!
Really dig the way you phase things!
Masterful!!!!
Magnífico!!
Brava! Superb.
yes, Joe, the cat in the doorway at 0:29 is waiting for her chance to play the Scarlatti fugue ;-)
Absolutely magnificent performance. You truly understand this music, and the joy with which you perform is infectious. Fine choice of instrument, also. May I ask who made it?
J Bennett Roberto Livi is the builder.
@@cantarlontano Thank you very much!
Now I realized how spiritual Couperin was....
Great performance! Sounds as good on this Italian harpsichord as on early French instruments! Can I ask what temperament is used?
gattina!
Ahahahah

My cat doesn't seem to respond to anything except feeding time
Dimostrazione pratica che gli italiani SANNO suonare la musica francese (che ha radici italiane, tra l'altro, come la Gioconda al Louvre! Hi hi)
François Premier, il mecenate di Leonardo, era di madre italiana...

Too bad Louis Couperin did not live beyond his mid-30s!
