From Billboard - April 3, 1961: Harpsichordist George Malcolm performs four important Bach works with masterly skill and musicianship. The selections include the "Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue in D Minor," the "Italian Concerto," the "Toccata in D Major," and the "French Suite No. 5." As difficult as the harpsichord is to record, it is captured with fine fidelity here, even though the stereo recording adds little to the solo instrument. Set should be of serious interest to Bach followers.
