A friend of mine is a violinist and has a recording of them out and performs them regularly. He's a modern violinist, but he played extensively with Laurette Goldberg (founder of Philharmonia Baroque) when he lived in San Francisco, and she taught him a lot about Baroque dance styles, and he's very much historically aware in his performances. He's told me that whenever he played Bach in competitions the judges always said they loved his playing, but marked him down for it because it was "non-traditional." Very annoying. > Not modern, if I may say so. Well, I should hope not! -- David W.
