OK, so I've got Gould's 1955 and 1981 versions. And I like what I've heard of Maisky, Rachlin and Imai doing Sitkovetsky's string-trio arrangement. But I could use recommendations for a few other recordings that show interesting variation in treatment of the variations!

And a version done by Neutral Milk Hotel fans would definitely qualify as interesting variation...

this has nothing to do with bach, but rostropovich's performance of dutilleux and lutoslawski's cello concertos are teh bomb. this.

haha, wow i'm only on var. 3 but this is "blowing" me away lololol. super whimsical but also very thoughtful. i can't stop smiling listening to this.
my go-to goldbergs are pinnock and hantaï on harpsichord. i've also really been digging keith jarrett's surprisingly restrained harpsichord rendition lately.
