The other day I heard another interesting arrangement of Die Kunst der
Fuge, it was one for recorder quartet, played by the Amsterdam Loeki
Stardust quartet.  I don't know the label, though, the perormance was
really beautiful and not in the least monotonic, as one would expect
from four recorders.
