poetgrey1: your beautiful phrasing is indeed the stuff
of life Cubus.
poetgrey1: I love your interpretations, I think they are
masterful. I've been playing this piece on the
guitar for years and have been greatly
influenced by your keyboard playing. You said
on your site you have since played fretboard and
was curious your transcription of this beautiful
little dance. Your recordings are top notch by
the way.
r3dk9: Way more rubato than I'm used to hearing in a
performance of this piece.
jmm1115: Beautifully played. Thank you!
12bar88: listening to Klaus Nomi turned me on to
Purcell,Fan ever since
ByYourCommand: Just learning to play a section of this piece
now as part of a learning exercise on the piano
(from the book The Piano Handbook). It's really
nice.
turbonelli: It's been years since i've played piano, but
listening to this makes me want to return.
Jeez Henry Purcell, you were a hell of a
composer.
mantisrob: Beautifully played. I've been looking for a way
into this piece, and I think you've helped me
find it.
There's a lot of fall and recovery in the piece
-- peaks and troughs like ocean waves. You
brought that out so nicely at the end of the
second strain.
Sujetkandratx5: its an amazing song!!!
majav15mg: lulz
RoulfYelrab: Especially his hair.
MouhadLuas: this song sucks...
Gweert: Very nice! I'm learning this as my first song
(I play sax/clarinet) and listening to this
helped greatly.
foundede: I think I'm falling in love with Henry
Purcell! LOL!

mrHardc0re: oh my god this was beautiful. i am stunned.
rheumer: Beautiful, poetic playing. My daughter is
learning this now and she and I love your
rendition. Thanks for posting.

heard (and seen) of this gorgeous little
classic. Thank you!
