Goldberg Variations BWV 988

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Anthony Newman

The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988, is a keyboard composition by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1741. It consists of an aria and thirty variations for harpsichord or clavichord and features strict counterpoint, a series of canons at rising intervals and virtuosic keyboard passages, and it was published late in Bach's life as part of his exploration of variation form and contrapuntal technique.
