I've just ordered this packet. Do you know it? How do you rate it?

philcan - I own this and love it. The cantatas, whilst not as brilliant as Elliot Gardener or the like, are fine performances and use "authentic" instrument ensembles. It's a monster, for sure and sits on my bookcase. I've now listened to all the cantatas and that was no mean feat ... mind you I did skip the recitatives (they are boring personally). I like the organ works (Hans Fagius). It's a treasure trove!!
If one has never heard Bach but want to make an investment in that Complete set, you do no wrong in getting it.
I have Magle's Toccata & fugue and I love it! Mr. Magle if you or Corno
is in, would you happen to have "Easter Oratorio,BWV 249"? I have it
on cassette but it's not going to help me get it on my computer.

Hi philcan,
I do not own that 155 CD set of JSBach's music. I have only heard some cantatas, organ works and other diverse selections from it. Therefore I have a favorable impression of it. Here's my copy of the Lute Suites:

*If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-
*Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."
*Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."

funny you should ask who is playing the Lute suites because I listened to them not that long ago, I can't remember the artist and have left my iPod at home (I downloaded the complete thing onto my iPod, took ages). If I remember I'll look it up on the box tonight.
Google! I do well to get my aol working! Is there something on you tube?
