    I found it extremely good, one of the new references.

    It is so cheap you may just go and get it. Anything I say will be meaningless.

    Wilson himself writes an interesting note: Couperin's music must sink into you. In the free works there is no recognizable time signature, but your body will eventually find the landmarks.

    Really good. Search in NAXOS

    Yes, an outstanding interpretation. But I think all Wilsons recordings are reference quality, not the least regarding the interpretation. This is certainly true of his WTC on Teldec, but also of his Buxtehude and Farnaby recitals on Naxos.

    I know his WTC - beautiful - not the rest. I will try to get it. Thank you for the information.

    For all:
    Is there anything interesting and new in Pre-1750 instrumental music?
