It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Hypnotic Bach

I just re-listened to the D-minor Partita, and the (mono) sound quality is pretty much what you would expect from a studio recording (Abbey Road) from June 1954 or March 1955, when Martzy recorded these works: a bit on the dry side for my taste, but perfectly fine in general. One thing that I hadn't noticed on previous listenings was that some extraneous studio noise can sometimes be heard in the background - I noticed it particularly in the Sarabande, where a couple of low-level, dull thuds can be heard. Whatever it was, it didn't seem to bother her or affect her playing at all.



(I have the French EMI set - it looks as if it's still available at Berkshire Record Outlet for $30.)
