Fourteen preludes and fugues from the Well-Tempered Clavier
Before Kirkpatrick, the Well-Tempered Clavier was performed on Bösendorfer pianos and on harpsichords with thirty-two-foot registers. Ralph's clavichord caught everyone off guard - even his engineers didn't understand how to record it. The sound of the nine pieces from Book One recorded in 1961 is different from that of the five pieces from Book Two recorded in 1969 and yet the microphones were jammed next to the tangents during both sessions. Kirkpatrick held up well under that scrutiny.
