"One could describe this music as reaching the pinnacle of musical achievement. It's beautiful, it changes everything around you. My wife brought it into her classroom - all the children worked intently and quietly, all mesmerized by the harmonious counterpoint of Bach by Gould. I can never tire of it."
Glenn Gould is a genius

Bach: English Suites, BWV 806-811

"Bach: English Suites, BWV 806-811 is a sublime recording with the amazing and eccentric Glenn Gould. I am a huge fan of both Bach and Gould so this is a match made in heaven. Sony Music has done an excellent job and the sound quality is great. The book-let is a bit thin but serves it purpose with several photos of Gould and a very well-written essay by Michael Stegemann. Gould's amazing ability as a piano matches with Bach's genius and I bet that Bach himself would have been pleased with his performance. This is easily a 5 star performance."
