Scarlatti - Sonata in C Major on a Roland Digital Harpsichord


Published on Jul 9, 2015 reeg2600

"In March, I bought a Roland Digital Harpsichord. Since then I've been completely blown away by how authentic the sound is -- down to the smallest detail. To capture that, I recorded a Sonata in C Major by Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) one of the 3 great composers of the Baroque era along with Bach and Handel. The performance has some flaws but the instrument sounds fantastic."

This one in via reeg2600 who wasn't sure if it qualified for a post. It's not a synth in the traditional sense, but it it is in essence a synth dedicated to reproducing a single real world instrument, so why not. It's reminder that synthesis goes beyond traditional synthesizers.
