Goldberg Variations

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & David Fray

The Goldberg Variations is a keyboard composition for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach, first published in 1741. The work has an opening aria and thirty variations that range from strict canons and dance-derived textures to ornamented figurations and elaborate hand-crossing passages, and it comes from Bach's late keyboard output where he explored contrapuntal technique.
