I got nauseated trying to follow what they were doing. In a good way.

I was wondering how they were going to pull off the fast part in the end, but they did. Bravo.

It's really odd to see the piece really broken up into its constituent parts, as was necessary to do this. Playing this on a keyboard instrument it's about each phrase, getting your fingers in place for the phrase, then the next phrase. Here, it's each individual note and what note is coming next.

Yeah. This piece is too easy when simply played on the harpsichord or clavichord. Throw some sticks into it, willya.
Interesting how the rubato style of the old-school French organist still shines through. Or something. Something shines through.

This is wonderful. I love how one of the musicians/jugglers breaks away to look at the score, turns the page, glances it again before returning to the other performers. Brilliant team work.

This was almost as hard for me to watch as a handbell choir. The level of interwoven precision required just about drives me over the edge. Really fine work. And a wonderful throw and catch near the end.
