[f_minor] [f minor] More unreleased GG material coming out

Tue Aug 21 19:01:29 MDT 2012

Hi Everyone, I do not see the link on this thread to purchase the Bach set,
only the link to where the release is announced on the Sony site. Can
someone please repost the link? I am not going to wait until Christmas -- I
am going to buy it right away, ha.
