J.S. Bach wrote six concertos for two to four harpsichords. Most of them are arrangements of his own music. The concerto for four harpsichords is based on Vivaldi’s concerto for four violins. Still this is the real Bach in all his orchestral splendour. It is hard not to be affected by this music, especially in such persuasive performances.

Sowing machines or musical instruments? Today, in the era of (copies of) period instruments harpsichords cannot be mistaken for machines any more. Not even when four of them are playing simultaneously.
