He is widely known for his music that captures the imagination of audiences around the world. Olafsson has been described as \"the Glenn Gould of Iceland\" (The New York Times), and this recording includes J.S. Bach's great \"Golteberg Variations,\" which he has finally taken up the challenge of recording in its entirety. This is the first time Olafsson has recorded the entire work, but he breathes new life into J.S. Bach's masterpiece, which is considered the pinnacle of baroque keyboard art, with his unique musical vision. The Goltberg Variations are the most virtuoso piece of keyboard music ever written, containing an astonishingly brilliant use of counterpoint, sublime poetic expression, complex contemplation, and a myriad of deep pathos. In 30 variations built on the humble harmonic framework of simple, graceful arias, Bach transforms limited material into an infinite variety of later and never before heard material.I think Bach is the best keyboard instrument virtuoso.\"-Vikingle Olafsson, Universal Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DG Deutsche Grammophon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46649870876961,"sku":"4988031589199","price":20.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4988031589199.jpg?v=1693174822","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/es-es\/products\/4988031589199","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
