Boudreau said: -- I don't think I would recommend this recording as part of a "standard" classical music library, but it is certainly worth listening to if you like the English Suite No.2. I find her interpretation sometimes brilliant (especially the first 3 parts), but sometimes less inspired. In any case, this recording is not bland and listening to it is an experience that shouldn't leave you indifferent. I suspect that people who like Gould's recording would also like this one to some extent, and vice versa. -- I found the wildness of her Fugue in C major (Book II) very refreshing.
