It's all Bach. Well Tempered Clavier; Inventions & Toccatas; Suites; 6 Partitas & Chromatic Fantasy

Disc 2. I'll probably get flamed in some sectors for listening to this, but I wanted to compare versions (TS and Huelgas Ens.) of Brumel's "Earthquake Mass".

Yesterday's listening - both excellent performances.

Been quite obsessed with the two Janacek string quartets recently.  The version I've got is wonderfully played by the Janacek Quartet (who should know what they're doing with this music...) but on a quite noisy old LP, would like to add a good CD version to my collection.  Any recommendations?

[mikeweil]

Yesterday it was the CD, the ensemble's debut recording; today it's the DVD recorded in 2015. Excellently played, sung, and enacted, and great fun to watch. The participants have humorous ideas in abundance. Highly recommended for any lover of French 18th century opera.

the only sony things missing (if you got both french and english suites) are:

italian concerto, with misc bach items and scarlatti/spe bach cd 

art of fugue

goldberg variations 2x

[StarThrower]

I have Art Of The Fugue. Also some non Bach. The Hindemith set, and the 4 disc set of Prokofiev, Scriabin, Krenek, Sibelius, etc.I should've grabbed the Schoenberg before it sold out and went up in price.
