English Suites, BWV 806–811 & French Suites, BWV 812–817

Johann Sebastian Bach

BWV 806-817

Glenn Gould

1970s

Gil's recommendation for both sets. Gould 'has a blast performing this.' The playing is 'infectious,' with 'wonderful rhythmic energy,' 'wonderful character, wonderful charm and energy' that 'sells you on the work.' Gil notes Gould's famous singing is present.
