Please pardon me if this has been discussed to death in the past, but
I have decided that I want a new recording of the Well Tempered
Clavier, Book 1, and I need some recommendations. Amazon.com is not
extremely helpful, particularly as the reviews rarely mention the
instrument(s) used.  I'd prefer an appropriate Germanic instrument as
opposed to a French Double, but ultimately the interpretation is the
important thing. Whose recording would you recommend and why? And
don't be shy if you have recorded it yourself!

Thanks,
John
