David Russell performs Prelude, Fugue, and Allegro BWV 998 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) recorded in Monforte de Lemos in Northwestern Spain. This comes via the Omni Foundation and their Youtube channel via the Omni On-Location series, Concerts from Historic Sites. Love the introduction to the location and, of course, the wonderful playing by Russell. You can also see his recording of BWV 996 here and BWV 997 here.

They also did a great interview with the great David Tanenbaum which is super informative and full of interpretation ideas.
