Die Kunst der Fuge - how small a thought it takes to fill a whole life |
A brand new page which is completely dedicated to Die Kunst der Fuge. Its main content will be many many reviews (or rather descriptions) of records from my collection, and several essays, pictures, links and anything that is interesting enough |
