This is a wonderful recording. Bach is probably my favorite composer, and The Art of Fugue excites the brain, as one tries to follow each instrument. It is a wonderful experience by a wonderful conductor. The music is passionate, precise, and brilliant.
Most Fabulous CD other than Bach with Pluck! January 7, 2004

This is a terrific musical offering to the listener! The ambience of listening to the ensemble that Bach puts together. It is truly an awe-inspiring work, and I say it whole-heartedly. I am not looking for credit for helping you, but I hope you do indeed pick this up. You will listen to it non-stop... At home, in the car, during you commute, at work! The variances are endless!Pick this up today!

I have tons of different recordings of The Art of Fugue, & this one of them all is absolutely my favorite. Each melodic line is very distinct. This is also the best recording of Musical Offering I know. Please get this cd. I think this might in fact be some of the very best recorded Bach available if you ask me. I'm not kidding. It's very heady & more soulful/emotional than you're likely to find in many other interpretations of his music, & without straying from what I think Bach had in mind with his music. Yes, this is what he intended.

This is one of the most beautiful versions of the Art of Fugue I have ever heard -- rich, colorful, and extremely musical. This is a must for anyone who wants to hear a full-blooded non-"period" performance.
