Your Twenty Favorite Bach Harpsichordists

[Bulldog]

The polls are now closed.  Ten members voted, a very small number considering that 23 members voted on the Bach pianist poll.  No wonder I'm sometimes skeptical of the taste level around here.

Anyhow, here's the list (only thru no.10):

1.   Leonhardt
2.   Rousset - Ross
4.   Wilson - Curtis
6.   Gilbert - Hill - Hantai - Pinnock
10. Dantone - Moroney - Walcha - van Asperen - Watchorn - Landowska - Rannou - Staier

I would have voted except you said I could vote for 20 harpsichordist.  I don't even know 20 harpsichordists.  I could conceivably name a favorite if asked to chose one or maybe two.   

By the way, currently listening to the Goldberg's with Scott Ross.  This is one piece of music which demands a harpsichord, in my opinion.  This one is pretty good!

Yes, same here.
Although maybe I did listen to 20 harpsichordists in Bach .... but still I've got too little listening experiences to 'judge'.
Apart from that, I can live with Leonhardt 'winning' this tough competition!
