There is a lot to like here.
Old recordings, granted, but this is one old German guy who could play a bit.
Bach/Busoni Partita No. 2 in D Minor, BWV 1004: V. Chaconne (arr. F. Busoni for piano) recorded in 1938 is certainly worth a listen.
It's up for streaming on both TIDAL and QOBUZ.
Follow Ups:
Just listened to the Chaconne. This is exactly the type of playing I absolutely hate. Fast means very very fast. Loud means as loud as you can play. Slow means very slow and soft means very very soft. I had a headache when he finished. I have accused the young women who are praised so highly here of the same type of playing but none of them are this bad.
My favorite performances of the Chaconne are Pletnev and Helene Grimaud

so much that it even affects tempo. ;-)
