Although disc 1 is identical to disc 1 in the Kammermusik set, disc 2 is not and includes BWV1019a instead of BWV 1019 for Sonata No. 6. It's wonderful to hear the rarely recorded alternate movements to this sonata. Except for his one blunder I consider Rienhard Goebel to be one of the best musicians alive today. Robert Hill is also extraordinary with flawless articulation and enjoyable tempos. The instruments are recorded closely with no reverb which provides an intimate listening experience. Sadly, this release is out of print but the Kammermusik set is still available. Acknowledgements: From the collection of Jan Hanford.
