Well done, Mr. Hogwood.

"I'm no musical expert. I simply seek out and purchase music that makes me happy. I love this recording! It makes me happy. I listen to it all the time. (especially while I study). Here's my humble advise to potential buyers: If you like clean, clear, and honest Bach, performed by an authentically small "chamber" sized ensemble on period instruments, then you will love this recording. If you prefer the larger, more puffed up versions which are unfortunately so common today, then don't buy it. If you're not sure what you like, you should give it a try. I find it wonderfully rendered and thoroughly enjoyable!"
Technically perfect, historically informed, but lifeless

"Just to give you an idea of where I'm comming from. I really like: historacally informed recordings, authentic instruments (of the time), lack of vibrato, and crisp brisk recordings.This almost is that. It's technically perfect, it's amlost vibrato free, it has authentic instruments, but it's lifelss (Not unlike midi, very accurate but has no emotion!)A much better recording (I found) was performed by Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin (which is also historically informed). Here it's played in a very expressive manner without sacrificing accuracy which just sucks you in."
