Performs
Bach- Goldberg Variations
@
MarshAnne Landing Winery
Sunday September 21, 3:00 PM
The "Goldberg" Variations is often regarded as the most serious and ambitious composition ever
written for harpsichord. Based on a single ground bass theme, the
variations display not only Bach's exceptional knowledge of diverse
styles of music of the day but also his exquisite performing
techniques. The work has long been regarded as the most important set
of variations composed in the Baroque era.

afternoon of piano music that shows off the virtuoso technique required
of this seldom performed piece.
