From CD Baby:
Peter Watchorn (harpsichord)
J. S. Bach: Das Wohltemperierte Clavier, Book 1 (1722)
© 2006 Musica Omnia
A great new recording of this important work, and the first to use Bach's
newly re-discovered tuning system for which the WTC was composed.
Let me guess: Lehman tuning? Sorry Brad. You are a nice guy, but you are
deluded. And the severity of that delusion has influenced untold people.
When I see this stuff, brought to my attention by those who know better, I
cringe.
I think it is safe to say that you are invested in your theories and will not
change them. You hear what you want to hear. It's easy enough to make
this claim because you say the same of others. Claiming you have found a Bach
code in ornamental squiggles is one of the great scams in music.
Truly, your responses were right on cue. The greater shame is with Early
Music and its publisher, Oxford Music Press.
