You could do a whole lot worse than playing Bach on Northern European instruments. (Insert E. Power Biggs being grumpy here.)
Thoughts on the Fantasia in G Major (BWV 572)? Here's Dupré Frenching that one up some as a change of pace....

@Angry_Panda How worse can it get?
Thanks for the Fantasia. I listened to it and compared it with another Interpretation. Dupre does play it slower (or better said, calmer) but with a certain heavyness that I quite like. Guess I found a new piece to listen to for the next week

The use of the North German (or adjacently designed Dutch) instruments is entirely suited to Bach - apologies if that came off as being in any way critical of that choice.
Well, any number of mid-sized American instruments from the early 20th Century, for example, have basically zero mutation/mixture work - it's 75% 8' stops on 4+" of wind, more closely resembling theater instruments than concert ones. Or some of the 19th Century English instruments with no pedal divisions to speak of.How worse can it get?
