Bach Goldberg Variations Reimagined (Chad Kelly)

Opis

Bach Goldberg Variations Reimagined (Chad Kelly)Opis:Product DescriptionImagining how Bach himself might have transformed the Goldbergs Variations for a chamber group, Rachel Podger and Brecon Baroque present a pioneering new arrangement of the Goldberg Variations by Chad Kelly. Employing a variety of instrumental combinations from a typical Bach ensemble of single strings, oboe, flute, bassoon and harpsichord, these newly-crafted Goldbergs illuminate exquisite responses to the various historical genres inherent in Bach’s scores. This beloved masterpiece was composed through a period of personal tumult for Bach; two unsuccessful job applications, the premature death of his son Gottfried, and criticism of his music in a prominent Hamburg publication. Bach’s outpouring of beauty in the Goldberg Variations has long captured audience’s imaginations - Chad Kelly, Rachel Podger and her fleet Brecon Baroque preserve the work’s exquisite intricacy whilst adding breadth, texture and colour to its emotional backdrop. This revisioning of Bach’s Goldberg Variations is a perfect transformation of the work for the modern era.

ReviewPodger is a supreme baroque player, and this is a bold and different way to think about Bach’s unfathomable genius. --The GuardianPodger’s solo in No. 25 is heart stopping, and an almost orchestral-sounding “Quodlibet” segues straight into the aria’s reprise. A fabulous disc, beautifully recorded. --ArtsdeskAutor:Rachel PodgerNośnik:Audio CDPłyt:Język: English: Original Language; EnglishData wydania: 2023-10-20Waga: 0.17 gramWysokość: 0.3 cmSzerokość: 5 cmDługość: 5.5 cmNew Store StockUWAGA: Kupując produkt na tej aukcji zgadzasz się na wydłużony termin realizacji wysyłki (10-14 dni roboczych).
