Goldberg Variations, BWV 988

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Christine Auger & Pascal Vigneron & Dimitri Vassilakis

The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 is a set of 30 variations for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. Written in the high Baroque idiom, the work combines intricate contrapuntal writing and variation technique around a recurring bass and harmonic framework, and it occupies a significant place in Bach's keyboard output as a mature exploration of form and ornamentation that influenced later keyboard repertoire.
