That was nice. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful music, although I find you really have to bring your A game to the music stand to give it its proper due.
David Russell is a true Couperin scholar, and has done a number of transcriptions. (I don't know about TABs though). I got hold of a few recently, and it quickly sent me packing back to the woodshed.
It's crucial to nail the ornamentation, especially the cross-string trills. That's especially the case in Couperin's music, and the fellow in your videos did a great job of it. They are straight-forward enough to learn and execute, but the real challenge is incorporating them into the music tastefully and with perfect timing. Otherwise the effect is lost. Easier said than done. That's what I found anyway, so I thought I would pass it along in case you'll be giving it a go. (Maybe you know all that already. I don't want to presume you don't).
Here is a clip of Russell playing one of these Couperin pieces:

I hear you…when I try something new that appeals to my ears, I often head on back to Woodshed as well!!!! But I keep remembering what I’ve learned from Woodshed and even Dominic Miller…play slowly and take two measures at a time…the only reason I’m writing this is to remind myself!!![emoji2957]

I don't wish I had sheet music for this. I can't imagine the facility to play this, this beautifully.
