5.0 out of 5 stars Soul Soothing!, January 23, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Bach Variations: A Windham Hill Sampler (Audio CD)

I have long been a fan of Windham Hill, but this is truly special. I also love mellow jazz and classical and this is a brilliant blending plus a couple of suprises into the mix. I really reccomend this work!

5.0 out of 5 stars I Keep Returning, May 11, 2006

This review is from: The Bach Variations: A Windham Hill Sampler (Audio CD)

I have had this recording for years and I keep returning to it and never tire. About 2 years ago, I played this CD every night while getting my baby (now a toddler) ready for bed. I have hundreds of CDs and like most all kinds of music, but if I could only have one... it would Bach Variations. It is not too sleepy, not too technic, varied, perfect.

Thoughtful and well done variations of Bach standards. Artists are excellent, and recording quality is top shelf. Good stuff to relax with.
