Still An Important Milestone
frankp93 | Danbury, Connecticut United States | 12/19/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Williams' was the first complete recording of the suites I'd ever heard and at that time I was just overwhelmed by the flawless technique. The recording captures a special time for me during my initial "guitar freak phase" and I still enjoy hearing it. But musically, I've heard so many expressive players on different instruments since (not the least of which Casals and Gould) that, as far as Bach on the guitar goes, I now prefer Sharon Isbin's recording of the suites on Virgin, both for her tone and phrasing. And if I'm in a lute-mood, Bream is still my guy. But Williams set the bar with this recording as far as I'm concerned and, for guitarists of all bents, it's a must have.
