Following up on his critically acclaimed album, the pianist has performed the variations – which he describes as “an encyclopedia of how to think and dream on the piano“ – in dozens of venues across the world, each concert giving him the chance to explore each time anew Bach’s work. “One often plays the Goldberg Variations very differently from one performance to the next,“ he has written, “and to play the whole piece 88 times feels almost like a religious pilgrimage, or a conceptual work of art.“ Subscribe here for more classical video clips – The Best Of Classical Music: _______________ Find Deutsche Grammophon Online Homepage: Facebook: Twitter: Instagram: Newsletter: _______________ 最优质古典音乐 – 此处订阅: Le meilleur de la musique classique.
