Goldberg Variations

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Józef Koffler & Trevor Pinnock & Royal Academy of Music Soloists Ensemble

Goldberg Variations is a keyboard composition by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. It is written in the Baroque style as an aria followed by 30 variations that alternate between strict counterpoint and virtuosic keyboard textures, and it is among Bach's late works for keyboard and has played a role in the development of the variation form.
