I have found a place to sample little bits of it on your computer:
http://smile.amazon.com/Bach-Tempered-Cl...B00QWAROLU
Of course, it is irritating to listen to it that way, as it just chops off the music abruptly when the allotted time is up for each sample.
There is also another customer review there.
I recommend that you just buy the CDs. Then, if you wish, complain bitterly about how I misled you, if that is how you feel after listening to it properly. If you are greatly offended at it, you can PM or email me a link to your wishlist on Amazon, and maybe I will buy you something of approximately equivalent value from your wishlist.
However, I think you are likely to enjoy it. Whenever I listen to it, I really wish that Book II had also been recorded. But having Book I is much better than not having it.
Horszowski is my favorite pianist. I also very particularly like:
http://www.amazon.de/Plays-Schumann-Chop...B000005J0V
It might be cheaper to buy it from a different Amazon site, or from some other source.
The other Electra Nonesuch discs he recorded are also well worth getting.
Edited to add:
And you might want to buy the Bach discs from the U.S. or some other place for price:
