Good find, Sean. I wonder is his playing any good? Do I need another Bach set? Hmmm....

You might not need it, but you probably do WANT it.

Had a quick listen to a sample or two online, and I don't think it's for me.

It's entirely understandable why this beautiful disk should be creating such interest on Tir Na:

Note to Fergus:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ockeghem-Missa- ... 611&sr=1-1
The Josquin is still very competitively priced, however the Ockeghem is now a little more expensive. Future food for thought however, I'm sure you'll agree.
