Music Reviews of Bach: The 6 French Suites, Glenn Gould Anniversary Edition
Music Review: Goulden Boy
Rating: 5 Stars
There is no doubt - Bach and Gould make a utopian combination. I have just recently bought this disc and am loving it. Although some may argue about Gould's controversial take on tempo and interpretation, I think he has the right, after his years of devotion to this composer, to be a little elastic. Three cheers for early Gould!Music Review: Way too fast
Rating: 3 Stars
As much as I love Glenn Gould, I think Bach's music was written mainly for the enjoyment of the soul. Anytime I listen to this recording I cannot savour it properly. Gould plays them at a devilish speed. It is fine to appreciate Gould's skills, but the grace of this music is lost in the process. Try Richter instead.Music Review: So many insights
Rating: 5 Stars
Of all the many French Suite recordings I've heard, in spite of its eccentricities, this is the recording I return to, because every time I hear it, I hear something new and fresh. It has everything - and no other recorded-performer comes anywhere near such understanding, enthusiasm and dancing-qualities.Music Review: Excellent!

I am becoming a huge Glenn Gould fan. I first heard him about 15 years ago from a recording from my father. Listening to the Bach "French Suites" is an amazing experience. It is interesting to do some googling to learn more about Gould the man as well.Music Review: Worth Owning

I listen to this CD all the time. There is a simplicity and clarity to it that just puts my mind at ease. At times a bit frenetic, but always precise and of an even temper. Very much recommended.
