Just released on Apple Music. I'm a huge fan of the the Handel keyboard suites. Just started listening to this now, so no opinion yet.

Meh.
Very dry. No passion or joy in it.
Gimme Ragna Schirmer's or Murray Perahia's performance any day.

That's disappointing to hear. I've liked Cho in some things I've heard though I've not heard him in Handel. I have both the Perahia and Schirmer recordings - and agree that they're excellent.

Yeah, it was, of course, technically very good, but didn't have the "soul" or "joy" that Perahia and Schirmer have. Jarrett's recordings of the suites are a bit on the dry side, but I still enjoy them.

@Horace at 3:02, does he repeat the G in measure 9?
I don't know. Are you familiar enough with that piece that it sounded wrong to you?

Yep. I learned it many moons ago. In fact, I tried to hack my way through it this week.

He misses the G and hits A instead. Then repeats the A, which follows the score.

That's right. I mis-heard.
I just found it glaring, because that's the fugue subject - the ascending 5 note motif.

White City is one of my favorite albums. I haven't listened to it in a while. I came across this, and I'll give it a
spinstream this weekend. -
