It took me years to get in to this but favourite piece/perf right now is this:

That Courante is as divine as music is ever likely to get. I’m also increasingly often visiting this channel https://www.youtube.com/user/Bachvereniging, although I’m only sort of enjoying it.

10 years ago Bach was pretty far down my list tbh. Today he’s on the B team with Beethoven behind Chopin and Liszt, but my honest prediction is that it won’t stay that way for long. If Chopin and Liszt give you nature, culture and people, with Bach it’s as if the universe itself is writing music. I only appreciate him more and more every year.

My favorite piece for solo instrument is the Chaconne. I really like the Musikalisches Opfer as well, to name something else.

As Bach is one of my fav. composers, I really don’t know where to start.
I love people like Gustav Leonhardt or Ton Koopman (harpsichord, organ).
I enjoy Harnoncourt very much (Cantatas etc.)
For piano, for original works I like the Russians like Vedernikov and S. Richter, but also Myra Hess or Lipatti. For the WTC I like Eunice Norton.
For the trannies I love Egon Petri


ABM is still my fav. for the Chaconne

this is my favourite piece, & fav recording. First two movements but particularly the fugue – the fugue is truly sublime. I don’t know how to explain it beyond it being a searingly spiritual piece. It’s like the last few pages of Camus’ Outsider where all the truth pours out in some primal scream.
