Wikipedia-Recording

On the wikipedia page "Inventions and Sinfonias" you can hear Hokanson play the JS Bach Sinfonias BWV 787-801. I know this comment is not "neutral", but I love Hokanson's rendering of the Sinfonias of JS Bach, his playing is expressive. --d-axel (talk) 22:43, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I added them there back in 2007 and uploaded them to Wikimedia Commons. His playing is very expressive indeed. For what it's worth my favourite recording of his on Wikipedia is his live performance of the 1st movement of Schubert's Sonata in G major, D 894; it's a great pity that his Schubert sonata recordings on Wikipedia had to be transferred from an LP rather than a reel-to-reel tape though. Yes, Wikipedia is not a forum, but I think just this once this sort of discussion is OK. I've moved your post to the bottom of the page. Graham87 10:04, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
