@Jack Stewart Thanks. I agree that the A major Variation was unexpected and a great and beautiful contrast. Stay tuned to see how it resolves in Variation 5.

@joosje I love that Pavana and was also wondering why no one was playing Luis de Milan, but then I wasn't either. In any case, a lovely rendition and glad you posted it.…

@Blaise Laflamme That was beautiful. Loved the ornaments. Interesting to compare it to Carlevaro's version. Also, could definitely hear some Carlevaro color in your right hand.

@Steve Pederson Thanks and good catch. Ponce uses that D# in many of the variations and I agree it is unexpected and creates some good tension.
