Goldberg Variations

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Ketil Haugsand

The Goldberg Variations is a set of keyboard variations by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. Rooted in the Baroque tradition, the work explores variation form and contrapuntal technique for solo keyboard, ranging from ornamented melodic writing to tightly structured canons, and occupies an important place in Bach's late keyboard output and the broader history of keyboard repertoire.
First released: 2002
