Joseph Haydn - Pieces for a Musical Clock 1792 no 9

Nederlandse tekst zie onder de video

The last piece for the musical clock which I recorded is so exuberantly cheerful that I added a fourniture the flute stops.

Het laatste stuk voor Flötenuhr dat ik opnam is zo uitbundig en vrolijk dat ik een fourniture toevoegde aan de fluitregisters.

About

As a classical organist I have been a prominent Messiaen and Reger interpreter since the '90s. Nowadays Bach interpretation is my main classical project. This is represented by my research "Dancing Bach on the organ". At the same time, as an improviser and a performing composer, I have been creating a new musical language which brings together musicians with avant-jazz, avant-pop, Western classical and traditional African and Asian backgrounds. I now relate this to my Bach interpretation.
