Brian Wilson

Bach: The Well-tempered Clavier Book II (Erato)

(Déjà Review) The set deserves the strongest recommendation, unless one prefers the piano [BW]

J S Bach: Organ Works Vol 8 (Challenge Classics)

(Déjà Review) Those who like big-sounding Bach will enjoy it more than those who expect a lighter touch [BW]

RVW Hodie Fantasia Naxos 8.570439

Vaughan Williams: Hodie (Naxos)

(Déjà Review) Though not quite ideal in the popular Fantasia, this version of Hodie brings to life a work which I had previously written off as one of RVW’s few failures [BW]

CPE Bach: Complete Keyboard Concertos Vol. 16 (BIS)

(Déjà Review) The latest volume in this epic project is as good a place as any to start and may be approached with confidence [BW]

Mozart: Piano Concerti No. 9 & 14 (Alto)

(Déjà Review) A splendid reminder of early Brendel, still sounding very well [BW]

handel giulio harmonia mundi scholl

Handel: Giulio Cesare (Harmonia Mundi)

Probably the best DVD version and one of the best in any format [BW]

Dufay: Music for St Anthony of Padua (Hyperion)

(Déjà Review) Superlative performances, well recorded, of attractive music: another excellent Helios reissue [BW]
