Back in 2012 the Open Goldberg Variations sought to "Set Bach free."  Now, the team behind the ground breaking project are continuing that quest with The Well Tempered Clavier - Ba©h to Bach.  Robert Douglass, MuseScore, and Kimiko Ishizaka return to take Bach's masterpiece - The Well Tempered Clavier, and release it to the world with copyright free recordings, typesetting, and a digital score.

In this interview Douglass shares the vision, history, and motivations behind this 2nd project as they do a major part to preserve and share one of the most significant works in the world's musical heritage.
