> Being a guitarist, I'm particularly fond of his lute suites, but nothing supercedes his organ music.
As an ex-guitarist, I wholly agree. The lute suites are amazing, but the organ is the best instrument for a single person to play polyphonic music. Still, Bach survives transcription better than any other composer (see the Swingle Singers and Switched on Bach).
