BACH: GOLDBERG VARIATIONS, etc This award winning performance of the Goldberg Variations is rare in that it includes all the repeats. Elizabeth is a harpsichordist of the most amazing ability and musicianship and although not until now widely available outside Australia this version is a must for lovers of Bach. Also includes Bach's Italian Concerto and his Fourteen Canons on the Goldberg Variations theme (with Lucinda Moon and Stephen Freeman (baroque violins). Elizabeth plays a copy of a 1769 Taskel harpsichord, with two manuals, coupler and three choirs of strings. |
