[24Bit 44.1Khz] Peter Hill - Bach Goldberg Variations 2018 24-48 FLAC

简介:
In the Goldberg Variations Bach answered a modest request – reputedly   from an aristocratic patron who wanted music that was ‘soft and somewhat   lively’ as a distraction from insomnia – with a work of immense   scale and ambition, a great musical journey that traverses a dazzling kaleidoscope   of musical styles. The music’s wit
and virtuosity is matched by the exquisite contrapuntal tracery of the canons   that form the work’s backbone, and by the tragic grandeur of the minor-key   variations, which contain some of the most poignant music Bach ever wrote; the   homecoming, as Bach ends by returning to the opening Aria, is one of the most   moving
passages in all music. Peter Hill here continues his acclaimed series of Bach   recordings with a searchingly imaginative performance, capturing the music’s   zest and its depth of feeling in a reading that is as profoundly poetic as it   is beautifully coloured.

Hill’s 6th recording for Delphian, captures the artist at the very height   of his powers.
