Goldberg Variations

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Minsoo Sohn

The Goldberg Variations is a set of keyboard variations by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. It comprises an opening theme followed by thirty variations that systematically explore contrapuntal techniques, canonic writing and dance-derived rhythms through virtuosic harpsichord writing, and it occupies a distinctive place in Bach's late keyboard output and in the Baroque variation tradition.
