    What, no P.J. Belder? Where would Brilliant Classics be without him?

    As well as Schiff Mk 1 and Hewitt, I've got an excellent harpsichord version by David Wright, harpsichordist with Red Priest, on Zum records. I picked it up at the back of one of their concerts and love it, but it may now only be available as a download. I see he's touring it a lot. I love the Hewitt version, having heard her play it!

    Trevor Pinnock: 1980 Archiv.

    I remember this being played on Radio3 when it first came out. The announcer (I don’t think they were called presenters in those days) said ‘as it is too long for one of these programmes, it will be played over two days’ and so it was. It was a morning programme.

    Surely it's 1981 versus 1955 and IMHO 1981 just shades it!!!

    Is it possible to have separate lists for versions played on harpsichord and versions played on piano? This would enable those with strong views on the matter to ignore versions played on the "wrong" instrument.

    For me it's Celine Frisch or Pierre Hantai on harpsichord, and Rosalyn Tureck and Gould 81 ( Hewitt for a modern version) on piano. But I learnt it from Ralph Kirkpatrick on LP...superb in many ways, but no repeats and he uses some strange stops; he's not listed now, I see.
