the Preamble and the Gigue

you hit the keys well.

Very good, precise, controlled, and even touch! Fantastic hand independence and ability to listen to both hands equally well.

For me, stylistically, I feel that using finger-pedaling as a type of ornament, unmarked though it always is in the score, is the only way to get the-best-of-both-worlds sound of both the harpsichord AND the piano at the same time, which the greatest Baroque players manage to do. 

No marking for finger-pedaling exists in piano notation that I am aware of, which is bizarre, as it is a very common marking in string-playing, and it has a profound effect upon the sound! Of course it has a huge impact on the sound in piano playing as well, but people don't talk about it much.

Obviously you wouldn't want to muck up your beautiful clarity of sound and touch by using the FOOT pedal. But instinctive finger-pedaling is surely the way forward to take your Baroque style, which is already very good, to the next level!

Bravo, and thank you for sharing!

P.S. Those were dope drills in the Gigue! Sounded really stylish!
