Goldberg Variations

Goldberg Variations

Pianist Lars Vogt presents one of the classic works of the Baroque repertoire Johann Sebastian Bachs (16851750) famous Goldberg Variations. Originally written for the harpsichord the Goldberg Variations, published in 1741, embodies an Aria with 30 variations and a coda. Bach wrote the work for Johann Gottlieb Goldberg, who, as the narrative relays, often played music for Count Kaiserling, the Russian ambassador to the Saxony court with whom he resided, as a cure for the counts insomnia. Apparently the work was one of the successes that Bach had during his lifetime, being published in the decade before his passing. A professional concert pianist for more than two decades, Lars Vogt was appointed the first ever Pianist in Residence by the Berlin Philharmonic in 2003/04 and enjoys a high profile as a soloist and chamber musician.
