Had the honor of hearing him play the toccata arpeggiata last night in NYC... a refined, beautiful interpretation, by a great artist.

Kapsberger foi importante no desenvolvimento do virtuosismo para cordas dedilhadas.

"Johann Hieronymus Kapsberger, italianizado Giovanni Girolamo Kapsberger (c. 1580 - 1651) fue un músico y compositor alemán activo enVenecia y Roma en la primera mitad del seiscientos. Llamado Il tedesco della tiorba por su reputación como un virtuoso de la tiorba y otros instrumentos de la familia de los laúdes"

hace 30 años que escucho este registro, entero; pero entiendo que se quiere resaltar las toccatas. Por una parte me parece bien, pero me resulta demasiado ensoñador, Kapsberger era inmenso en todos los registros, sus escalas as( des ) cendentes se dejaron ver en todo el barroco ; me resulta dificil entender a Weiss, incluso a ( en parte ) BACH, sin estos arpegios, disminuciones y crescendos de kapsberger. Claro, con Hopkinson al laud, solo podemos escuchar la mejor interpretación. gracias.
