Johann Sebastian Bach-Goldberg Variations BWV 988


The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988, are a set of 30 variations for harpsichord. First published in 1741 as the fourth in a series Bach called Clavier-Übung, "keyboard practice", the work is considered to be one of the most important examples of variation form. It is named after Johann Gottlieb Goldberg, who may have been the first performer.


The Goldberg Variations have been reworked freely by many performers, changing either the instrumentation, the notes, or both.

* Joseph Gabriel Rheinberger, transcription for two pianos, op.3

* Ferruccio Busoni prepared a massively altered transcription for piano. According to Michael Kimmelman, "Busoni shuffled the variations, skipping some, then added his own rather voluptuous coda to create a three-movement structure; each movement has a distinct, arcing shape, and the whole becomes a more tightly organized drama than the original."

* 1984 - Dmitri Sitkovetsky, transcription for string trio

* 1987 - Jean Guillou, transcription for organ

* 1997 - József Eötvös (musician), transcription for guitar

* 2000 - Jacques Loussier, arrangement for jazz trio

*AMATI STRING TRIO

*Gil Sharon,violin
*Ron Ephrat,viola
*Alexander Hülshoff,cello
