This melody is from a breakup song called “Now, O now I needs must part,” published by English composer and lutenist John Dowland in 1597. The instrumental version is called “The Frog Galliard.” A galliard is a Renaissance era dance that was enjoyed by Queen Elizabeth I. Why is it called “The Frog”? According to my research, no one knows.
It breaks my heart that with this video I can't say Natalie is "Just like me frfr" anymore as she has become too cool for me to ever possibly be like her 😔
love your playing! might i suggest one of the de la guerre harpsichord sonatas? she was a fantastic composer and nobody really plays her music anymore despite her success in her lifetime
I watched this twice and now my home page on youtube is filled with Clavinets, Fortepianos, cembalino and other weirder period keyboard instruments. It's one of the better gifts Contrapoints has given me as a fan.

I love that Natalie is getting her money's worth for that harpsichord, and feeding us while doing so no less
We love a harpsichord queen

I feel like I should be sipping absinthe and telling rude stories about Louis XIV.
I love the way you shot this piece!!! It made the music feel so vivid 🥰
I could listen to this all evening, & you do such a fantastic job playing!
Got this live! So soothing, like being at a banquet.

normalize rejecting equal temperament
as someone with a degree in music theory, I feel qualified to say that Dowland's Final Fantasy IX vibes were off the charts
Christ, Natalie, you get classier with each passing day.
Damn composer was def in his feels with this one

Fully living the Hannibal aesthetic
thank you for blessing our ears and hearts once again ❤❤❤
Okay this is so cool, I have always loved how elegant the harpsichord is and I love all of the ornamentation and rolled chords <3 <3
One of my favourite RUclipsrs performing a piece by one of my favourite composers on one of my favourite instruments, delightful
Always a delight hearing you play Natalie
