Vivaldi's Cello
I find this album really amazing. Highly recommended. I disagree with the statement that the harpsichord is too "clicky"; the effect is like a drum roll; the keys themselves are an instrument of percussion.

Yo Yo's virtuousity is amazing! This selection of Vivaldi is performed by a variety of accompanists, all of whom seem as if they've gotten together for a Sunday afternoon in the park. They give the distinct impression that they're having fun! A delight to listen to, from beginning to end...with one caveat: the instruments are close-mic'ed, meaning you can hear the skitter of the bow on the strings, the click of the quill on the harpsichord and the keyboard of the organ on 9, 10, 11 sounds like a vintage IBM computer keyboard-clack clack clack. 'Can't recommend those tracks, but otherwise, it's a delightful collection!
