There's nothing "English" about the English Suites, except for a story circulating after Bach's death that they were composed for an Englishman. These pieces are larger than Bach's French Suites, for in addition to the usual batch of dances that characterizes the suite form, they also contain a large introductory prelude, or "overture." Gould performs this music--as he does all of Bach--with the crisp style and utter digital clarity that for many people remains the way this music was meant to sound. --David Hurwitz, amazon.com
