Let's talk music, no genre boundaries

This is an offshoot of the jazz thread. I and others found that we could not talk about jazz without discussing other musical genres, as well as the philosophy of music. So, this is a thread in which people can suggest good music of all genres, and spout off your feelings about music itself.

I like the Nikolaeva Bach very much.

Unfortunately, it only seems to be available on CD as a Japanese import. I'm willing to spend $30 on a 2 CD set, but not $20 on top of that for shipping.
