Bach Dynasty

“The program concept is strong: Rousset attempts to give an idea, within the confines of a single disc, of the varying nature of the sons’ responses to having such a musically totalizing father as an example. The players can nowhere be faulted technically, and the music here is never boring — but the listener will once again be reminded of how much tastes changed in the middle of the eighteenth century.” AllMusic
