Review title: Painful
Product review: Among the countless recordings of these masterworks this version is certainly no gem. I find Kenneth Gilbert's technique dry and uninspiring and coupled with the harpsichord which lacks any dynamics makes this rendition an exercise of utter boredom. The overall pace of these recordings are static. There is no motion. The tempo is kept at an even walk for both the preludes and fugues! The impression I get is that Mr. Gilbert is simply bored and finds playing these pieces a chore. If one had to settle on a single version of The Well Tempered Clavier one can certainly do better than to choose this set.
