Yes, in principle. However I find Norberto Broggini's style a bit too rigid for Purcell.
Reality trumps our fantasy beyond imagination.

Egarr's about as good as it gets for Purcell on harpsichord I think.

Grante's Scarlatti is very tasteful. His dynamics are extremely subtle or nonexistent and there's very little pedal. It's very baroque even on piano. At the same time, there is sensitivity here. But poise is the word.

Please let me know any nice recording of piano performance of Frescobaldi. Michael Fontana sounds a little hard and non-poetic to me. I would like to listen to other pianists.
