1MP3 Download is not correctJan 07, 2009
Be forewarned that the MP3 download is not correct. You will not get the ten CD Original Jacket: Glenn Gould Plays Bach. What you get instead is a poor recording from a radio broadcast in 1954, which you can get over on iTunes Plus for only 5.99.

I have run across a great number of similar problems with Amazon's classical MP3 catalog. The links from great CDs are to mediocre other recordings. I have yet to find an instance where the reverse was true (but then, I try to avoid looking for mediocre CDs). So, when looking for classical MP3 downloads, be sure to doublecheck that you're actually getting what you think you're getting!

5I love this setFeb 24, 2006
I probably own most everything that is available by Glenn Gould on CD. I bought this box set several years ago and have never looks back. I love every minute of it. The acid test of any CD is how long before you tire of it or outgrow it and I can say with this set never. I am well aware of the comments about picking up individual CDs but here there is no hassle and you own a great Bach set played by Gould with very little effort. The set is definitely worth the price. If you like Back, if you like Gould, if you are intelligent or so daft you buy anthing at all, then you will love this set.

1What's the reason for this box set?Oct 03, 2005
I can't understand the rationale for this box set: or more precisely, I can't understand the criteria for putting it together. It is a box set- 12 cds, with original covers in tiny versions. But what exactly were the criteria? If it's Glenn Gould's Bach, then it's incomplete. It contains 12 cds, but a second volume with another 14 cds (by my count) would be required to complete it- if it is meant to be GG's 'complete' Bach. What's missing?

1. WTC, Volume 2: [3 cds].(according to the "original cover" Lp release criteria).
2. KYBD. CTI, Vol. 2: [1 cd]
3. English Suites: [2 cds; the original Lp was a double album, but won't fit on 1 cd, so 2 "little lps" would be required]
4. French Suites: [ 2 cds: threse would fit on 1 cd, but, according to the set's criteria, 2 little lp covers would have to be reproduced, so: 2 cds]
5. Goldbergs 1982: [1cd]
6. Violin Cti.: [2 cds: originally, a double album, but won't fit on 1 cd, so: 2 little lps]
7. Viola cti.: [1 cd]
8. Preludes, Fugues and Fuguettas:[1 cd]
9. Unreleased (until 1997) "Italian" works and fugues:[ 1 cd]: At Gould's death, he had recorded half of 2 Bach albums: together, they would make one cd: an imaginary, "what if" LP cover would have to be designed- if this was going to be the "complete" Gould's Bach. Or does this stretch the criteria?
10. "Tim Page interviews Glenn Gould" on the Goldbergs: [1 cd]: This was an Lp orginally included with the first issue of the 1982 Goldbergs: It would make a nice "bonus disc", but a little Lp cover would have to be designed.

So: IF this is going to be a complete Gould's Bach, and even if one doesn't count the Page interview, then a second volume would have to have, by the above count, another 14 discs. Which is do-able. But then one is forced to ask: what was the original reason for the box set, if it wasn't to be a complete Gould's Bach? I thought that perhaps it was possibly to collect only the wonderful portrait covers of Gould's original Lps, but then why would it not include the 1982 Goldbergs,the English Suites, the Preludes,Fuguettas and fugues album,the WTC vol. 2, or the violin and viola da gamba Lps, all of which have wonderful portraits, not to mention many other non-Bach Gould albums. Was the idea for the box to only include solo recordings of Bach by Gould? Well, it can't be that either, because it contains Vol. 1 of the Keyboard Cti with orchestra, and doesn't contain many other of Gould's solo Bach. No, the theme seems to be: Gould's Bach, with originals covers. So finally, one can only hope that Sony plans to release a 14 or 15 cd box set sometime in the future- but this box has been out for seveal years now.

One is forced to conclude that the reason for ths box is a mystery. One star subtracted for mystery aspect.

5A Glen Gould Extravaganza by Eugene CorenoDec 26, 2004
I absolutely love this set of recordings, which I loved back when I heard them on vinyl. For me and apparently many others, Gould brings a blazing intelligence and clarity to these works. I believe I prefer his recording of these pieces to any 'urtext ausgabe' type of recording. Reccommended to those who wish to see deeply into these works.

5Average Price...Great RecordingMay 26, 2004
Some people might think this is a rip-off, but I think otherwise, I got these 12 CD'S about 6 months ago, and am still enjoying every one of them. But then again if you think about it, this really isn't a rip-off...first off you must remember that these are the original jackets, therefore you may think things in this collection are pointless, such as the Well-Tempered Clavier split onto three CD'S...but its not pointless considering the fact that this is the ORIGINAL Jacket collection. The origanal Masterworks records sold the Glenn Gould Well Tempered Clavier in THREE seperate volumes, which is why they have THREE seperate volumes of CD's in this box set. And then again im sure that if you bought all these CD's separatly they would come to about (maybe more) than 120 dollars, I havnt calculated it out, im just estimating. I would highly reccomend this collection, its well worth having if you like Glenn Gould playing Bach, which you MOST LIKELY will like. You wont ever regret buying these CD's...they are something to cherish.
