I've also always thought of the harpsichord solo of B'burg #6 as the enlightenment version of Van Halen's Eruption - something that redefines what it means to talk about instrumental technique.

The harpsichord is continuo throughout #6, and anyway, I can't imagine no van Allen belting it out if there were. OK, it's not strange music at all, but any excuse will do for rolling out Bach once more, so I just blame you for that. :Erasb:

For Brian, I like the rock-metal arrangement of the bagpipe music with bass and other guitars!
