Kijanki - I'm certainly not as knowledgeable as you about Bach and I suppose I'm fairly uncritical (if that's a word.) I would describe her playing of the Lute Suites as restrained rather than energetic, more 'Sunday morning' listening than 'Saturday night.'
Thanks for the Stephen Schmidt recommendation. I really like having multiple versions of music I like, especially widely different interpretations. The first classical recording I ever bought, more than forty years ago when I was 18, was Julian Bream playing the lute suites.
