[@peterholmes3011]

Great performance. If I was there at the performance I would be disappointed the harpsichordist had her back to the audience. I realise in the 17th century this may be the way it was but would be interested in your feelings on this, have you considered having the harpsichord sideways on or facing the audience?.

[@VoicesofMusic]

We have tried every possible way, and this way gives the best ensemble with no conductor and minimal intervention. There are some pieces, like a harpsichord concerto, where a different setup is better.

[@VoicesofMusic]

Some people put the harpsichord in the back, facing front, but it does not work well. Typically, the timing is off.
