BACH: GOLDBERG VARIATIONS, etc
ELIZABETH ANDERSON (harpsichord)

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.
