Youtube; Ravel on piano in a good unequal temperament.

Post by Jonathan the 2nd »

The recording in the title above deserves attention for 3 things. Firstly , the immaculate performance . Second , the piano itself for a rich mellow tone . Third for the old temperament used on newer music .The temperament itself , probably Thomas Young ,has no shortcomings in any way . I don`t know the lady`s name in the video but she is a very special musician.
Edit -- Helen Yorke is the lady in the video . Some of the nicest music I have ever heard . Personally I find lady players are my favourite piano musicians . I used to go camping and Piano music on the radio , late at night , was a special treat .
