Pretty nice piece, never heard it before! The interpretation does not really work for me however. The almost total absence of dynamic contrast in the first movement (and to a large extent in the second) makes the piece sound extremely 'mellow'. So for the first few minutes it really captured me, but after that it becomes somewhat boring because the atmosphere of the music never really changed. The last movement I liked very much, but then you have to sit through the first two movements. In my humble opinion. And yes I know the harpsichord for which this piece was probably written could not produce dynamics. But at least the sound of the harpsichord always give the music a certain 'presence', if that makes sense.
The numbering of the Sonatas are messed up among all the categories, but I think this could have been written for early fortepiano. This score/edition, though, is a compete disaster and should be buried forever!

I agree. I much prefer Walter Klein' take on this
