I don't have any problem with it, and I find Rifkin's Bach recordings
on Decca among the best.  I realize that one voice per part has the
potential to sound rather anemic/inadequate.  But it also has the potential
to increase expressiveness and intimacy.  The main thing is that Rifkin's
a wonderful representative for Bach's music regardless of how many voices
are in the mix.
