Goldberg-Variationen, BWV 988

Bach intended them to be played on a double manual harpsichord, which presents a problem for interpretations on the pianoforte. This critical performing edition is based on the Urtext of the New Bach Edition and divides the parts between the hands analogue to Bach’s own printed edition of the famous cycle.
