Editorial Reviews

András Schiff is Today Regarded as One of the Finest Interpreters of Bach on the Piano, a Performing Tradition that was Earlier Established by Glenn Gould with his Legendary Interpretations of the Goldberg Variations in the Late 1950s. This 2-CD Set features a Number of Popular Pieces Such as the Italian Concerto and the Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue as Well as a Selectioon of Preludes and Fugues from the Well-tempered Clavier and Several Suites. As Well as a Strong Catalogue Item and Addition to the Double Decca Catalogue, this Set Acts as a Superb Reminder of András Schiff's Major Survey of Bach and his Acclaimed Interpretations as He Approaches his 50th Birthday on 21 December 2003.
