and all the bright eggheads thinks he's one of the most competent and precise Bach interpreters ever but personally i can't stand his mechanical style and the fact that he's making these enervating goat sounds on virtually all of his recordings

There's a man who really gives a damn about what's important (in this case, the music), and doesn't give a damn about anything else (in this case, anything else).
