Imagining how Bach himself might have transformed the Goldbergs Variations for a chamber group, Rachel Podger and Brecon Baroque present a pioneering new arrangement of the Goldberg Variations by Chad Kelly. Employing a variety of instrumental combinations from a typical Bach ensemble of single strings, oboe, flute, bassoon and harpsichord, these newly-crafted Goldbergs illuminate exquisite responses to the various historical genres inherent in Bach's scores. This beloved masterpiece was composed through a period of personal tumult for Bach; two unsuccessful job applications, the premature death of his son Gottfried, and criticism of his music in a prominent Hamburg publication. Bach's outpouring of beauty in the Goldberg Variations has long captured audience's imaginations - Chad Kelly, Rachel Podger and her fleet Brecon Baroque preserve the work's exquisite intricacy whilst adding breadth, texture and colour to it's emotional backdrop. This revisioning of Bach's Goldberg Variations is a perfect transformation of the work for the modern era.
