Bach links

Hi, the site that you're linking to is amazing ... with free, legal, high-quality, authentically performed recordings of Bach works! Just one thing: it's better to link directly to the download link where possible, like I did at Clavier-Übung III; I can understand why this might be a problem for works like the preludes and fugues. If you do decide to link directly, it's a good idea to mention the file format of the audio, like I did at the link above. Also, check out the link formatting changes that I made at Clavier-Übung III and Prelude and Fugue in E flat major, BWV 552. You may be interested in WikiProject Classical music.

Having reviewed the site a bit more deeply, I think it would be best to link from articles about individual works to the catalogue entries, like I just did at BWV 552, where I added a link to this page. Graham87 15:59, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, my mistake re: BWV 552 ... fixed! You have a valid point regarding the Clavierübung links. Although we do try to link to pages directly related to the subject, I can see your point about providing the choice of formats and having the opportunity to read about the various organs used. I think I'll reformat the links to the collections accordingly. Graham87 03:21, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've re-formatted all the links to James Kibbie's recordings, and linked to them from the articles about Johann Sebastian Bach and the Prelude and Fugue in D major, BWV 532. A list of pages that link to the site can be found here. Graham87 06:07, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
