Confession; I tend to dislike early music played on piano - a ridiculous, pretentious hang-up that I cannot shake. Yet Momen (Rushdie Momen?) pours forth an excellent performance. The pianist creates harpsichord-like timbre while at the same time not pretending that she is playing one. She makes use of what the piano can do while still holding to the structure of music intended for an instrument lacking 'sustain' pedals.
Listening to Variations right now. Beautiful. Thanks for the heads up!
