The Goldberg Variations

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Ekaterina Dershavina

The Goldberg Variations is a keyboard composition by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. The work, composed for harpsichord and often performed on piano, presents a theme followed by a series of variations that employ Baroque contrapuntal techniques and variation of a bass-line and harmonic progression, reflecting Bach's late-period style and a significant place in the keyboard repertoire.
First released: 1996
