4.0 out of 5 stars Nice collection but not the very best, October 19, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Very Best of Bach (Audio CD)
This CD listed the most popular of Bach's work but not consider "The Best" but it is the most suitable material for people who is new to classical music and new to Bach and his work. 4 out of 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Intro to Bach's music, February 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Very Best of Bach (Audio CD)
My knowledge of Bach was limited to one CD consisting mostly of the Brandenburg Concertos. This collection exposed me to a larger variety of his music. As another reviewer said, maybe not his very best but a very good collection and I would recommend it. A very solid 4 out of 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Instant Bach Composer Study, November 9, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bach (The Very Best Of) (MP3 Download)
I bought this and downloaded it the same day because I needed some Bach for our homeschool composer study. This was perfect -- a sampling of Bach music, selected by experts who know what is Bach's best. I didn't have to hunt down specific songs or even leave home to shop. The Very Best of Bach served our purposes wonderfully. I burned the music to disc and played it in the background all term. Now it's part of our classical music collection.
