HOW NICE to have Baroque repertoire played so well on a modern instrument! Purists can [censored]! But I must admit I'm still a fan of the baroque instrument. I won't buy one just because, as a hobbyist now, I prefer the chromatic ease of the modern key-work.
It kind of sounds like Maestro Schilli plays a Loree. Well, there's definitely no arguing with his performance.... though I prefer not to look at him.
The pitch seems to rise and fall with emotion: I like that - somehow, it's not out of tune, just colourful!
Notice his embouchure. Someone here mentioned that France uses "hard-lip" (tight smile instead of dropping the jaw), it kind-of looks like he's doing that. I can imagine that hard-lip allows for less control over the cheeks. In my case, there is a definite imbalance between the left and the right. Perhaps I should concentrate on eating on the left side for a while to soften the muscles....
