After trying out this suite on the Paul Ott organ sampled by AB, I now present the same work by Georg Böhm that can be played on the new Grimaldi Italian harpsichord, sampled by AB:

I found these in my Kalmus edition of the complete organ works of Georg Boehm. Though they are included in this organ collection, I suspect they are really more for harpsichord than organ; the title of this section in the music is “Klavier-Suiten.”

As this is a pretty short piece, I propose two performance versions for you to decide which is a better approach.
In version one, I take a more relaxed tempo and ornament only sparingly during the repeats of the two sections. You'll hear all the combinations of this harpsichord, though. Part A first time is the 8' secondo, while part A repeated is 8' secondo plus Liuto. Part B first time is 8' primo, while part B repeated is 8' primo plus 8' secondo.
I'll characterize the second version as more aggressive in tempo and ornamentation. I maintain the same registration throughout from start to finish (both 8' stops, no liuto as this isn't possible to add), but I play it with a snappier tempo and include pretty lavish ornamentation in the repeats.
I'm interested to know what you think.
