Exzept legit cases can be made for da Hummel, Clementi and Weber being Romantic cumposerz.

Da WF Bach meant to have zum wtf zheeyatz. Duzzek.
Did da Ztamitz or Ditterzdorf write any 88 zheeyatz? (Pozz more like 61 zheeyatz)
Reicha wrote zum wtf fugues but :nigga: contemporary, early romantic pozz.

Sylvius Leopold Weiss has some great lute music, an exact contemporary of Bach’s.

Maybe not super obscure, but I like several of Buxtehude’s organ works. Froberger, Reincken. I don’t know any of his music well, but I also listen to Corelli from time to time.

Da HANDEL keybawd Suitez more than 3 hourz of sheeyatz

Actually, who of note has recorded the Handel zheeyat? Aside from :rectum: :gav: and Perahia did 1 or 2.

Schiff has a great HWV 434. Cherkassky did D minor and E major.

I pretty much like this Heidsieck! And Edwin Fischer did some stuff, too.

Gould?
Is it as…good/bad as his Bach?

I’m the wrong person to ask. As you know I think he’s a clown. Not without some good things to his credit, but I have no recollection of these.
