At first I was stunned on how good it was to listen to these pieces in a great format as SACD. However, miss Fischer should pay more attention to the details instead of get every note just right. There aren't huge mistakes, which makes it worthy, but it isn't perfect. The booklet says that she's quite young to perform all of this pieces and I believe it's true. She can improve in the future.

You must listen to this with SACD kit to do justice to the recording. OK CD layer is not too bad but with sensitive equipment you can hear so much more with the SACD it is unbelievable.She is one of the best performers of Bach solo pieces if not the best. Milstein, Kagan, Grumiaux, Perlman are good. But she is something else. Timing, fluidity, expression I can go on and on. This is the most "musical" interpretation of these pieces I have heard so far.

I am in complete agreement with Mr. Larson's review. Fischer plays the notes impeccably, but there's a complete lack of spirit, drama, flexibility of tempo, and contrast of color and dynamics. Her playing is metronomic, turning some of Bach's greatest music into a series of student exercises.There are plenty of technically adept violinists with the technique to play this music flawlessly, but who have more to say interpretively (try Szeryng, Ehnes, or Tetzlaff, for examples). And then there are those who are slightly less than perfect, like Gidon Kremer, whose Bach is breathtaking beyond works.

In March I heard Julia Fischer playing Khachaturian's violin concerto at a concert at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. She is such a wonderful violinist that soon after I got home I checked what other performance of hers would be available from Amazon. When I saw this CD I promptly ordered it. Because on this CD she plays without an orchestra, her virtuosity is even more obvious and superb than in the concertos where she is accompanied by a full orchestra. I recommend this CD to everybody who likes the violin music of J.S.Bach!

I bought this storage tower years ago.Unfortunately, the other reviewers are correct.This product was a waste of money as it seems to always tip over if I were to completely fill the slots with cd's.I'm sure the other consumers purchased this because of its sleek appearance. I know that was my reason. You want a rack that isn't going to move each time you place or remove a cd.It's like playing the game, Don't spill the beans. In this case the cd's.You never know when you will completely knock it over and potentially damage your cd's.

The product that I received is not what I ordered. It is not big enough to hold 35 cd/dvds, it came with no hardware to mount it, it was packaged poorly so one of the rungs was bent, and it is not big enough to hold cds or dvds like the pic shows. Do not waste the time or money on this. I did my research and have 4 other wall mounting cd/dvd holders and absolutely love them and though this would be the same however, I was very wrong and cannot even use this one.
