!9#: The Complete Bach Edition
Teldec's monumental COMPLETE BACH edition, released in July 1999 as BACH 2000, was the first complete edition of all Johann Sebastian Bach's compositions. The culmination of 41 years of recording, COMPLETE BACH, which consists of 153 CDs, appeared exactly a year before the 250th anniversary of Bach's death and has been called by La Republica 'the most ambitious project the record industry has ever conceived.' Gramophone wrote, 'COMPLETE BACH will provide you with a lifetime's exalted listening, invariably presented with love, enthusiasm and conscientious musicianship.'
