Bach (1685-1750)

Description:

An exciting masterpiece! Bach's Goltberg Variations on accordion! Bach's great masterpiece, the Goltberg Variations, is performed on accordion. This kind of arrangement is often preceded by a sense of rarity, but Mika Vayulinen's performance here is of a very high level. The arias and variations are all very attractive. Very good technique (the 5th variation is brilliant!). ) and a musicality that one can't help but fall in love with (the dripping beauty of the 14th variation!). ), the result is a performance so fresh that even those who have enjoyed it on harpsichord or piano may feel as if they have encountered a new masterpiece. Vayulinen is a Finnish accordionist born in 1967. The sound of the accordion itself is quite different from the sound of an accordion as usually imagined.The range of expression is wide, from the exhilarating beauty, melancholy, and high transparency of the blue autumn sky to the almost unrecognizable grandeur of the 16th variation. By the time you return to the aria, you may be completely captivated by this CD. For those who love Bach's music and for those who are "Goltberg maniacs," this is one CD you must check out.
