My WTC recordings comparisons.

[Xavier Otazu <xavier@fajnm1.am.ub.es>]

	Hello everybody:
	
 This past summer holidays I was listening very carefully to the Well
 Tempered Clavier recordings I have: Schiff, Richter, Gould and
 Landowska.
 
 Finally I have finished listening of WTC volume I.
 
 Obviously I have to tell that I recommend this experience to everybody.
 It is difficut to answer the question: "What WTC recording do you
 prefer?" Actually I don't know what to tell. Every player is very good
 in a prelude, but very bad in the next fugue. It depends on the piece.
 My past ideas has changed radically. I dind't like some players, and
 now I think them are the best, and viceversa.
 
 I listened to every prelude and every fugue carefully, comparing every
 player many times, and I wrote my impressions. I have intended to be
 objective, but obviously personal preferences plays an important role.

 My impressions are 23 Kb long, and this is the reason I do not post
 them here. I think it is better to put them in my WWW page.
		
 You can find them in

 For the moment it is posted only volume I.

 Waiting for your comments...
