    Ligeti, il genio della cacofonia. No aspetta, questa é musica avanzata, per palati raffinati.

    Why do you keep stopping? Do you not think they understood rhythm in the 17th century. Your playing makes no sense musically at all.

    I come back to this every few years, it is an amazing performance, I think it's better than Chojnacka, love it when he pulls out the manual.

    That was one of the most sublime musical moments I've ever witnessed. The way he makes the wood of the instrument sing along, thump along, the percussive pangs of the manuals... And also the contagious exuberance of the performer! Thank you, Mr McKean, and may you continue your visionary artistry! This hereby joins Chojnacka's "Naama" in my pantheon.

    what an awful piece... why is everybody praising it? are you people deaf?... it is as if it would be a vi0l4tion of the poor harpsichord and the harpsichord is screaming for help... makes me sad.

    This tempo suits this piece much better, there seems to be a tendency to play this piece too fast! Now the parts from bar 81 have real impact! Also can we hear you play La Boisson?

    HEY UA-cam: pro tip. Continuum was written long before Justin Taylor or Alpha "licensed" it to you. John McKean recorded this well before Taylor's cd was made. And for the record, I prefer Mr. McKean's superlative performance.

    I feel sad for those poor people who call this music, listen to it or even spend valuable time to practice such a thing! 20th-century music has roots in communism and pure ignorance. Whoever criticizes it is attacked brutally, humiliated, and isolated from the music society. It is the music of psychopaths.
