Note the alternative recording of Goldberg Variations (obviously technically much better than the first from 1933), incomparable Prelude, Allegro and Fugue BWV 998 and all the other individual works. My favourite is "Capriccio sopra la lontananza del suo fratello dilettissimo" BWV 992 - the only performance I would like to listen to.
