Say Fazil: Bach: Goldberg Variations - CD

Turkish pianist Fazol Say describes Goldberg's Johann Sebastian Bach Variations as both a musical and mathematical masterpiece. Although the fifty-two-year-old pianist recorded his first Bach album in 1988 and has recorded 58 albums in total, including all other composers, Goldberg's variations have been absent from his repertoire. Like many other musical personalities, he took advantage of the hiatus for a thorough study and his attention turned to this extraordinary composition by Bach. It is obvious from the available examples that the long period of artistic maturation has clearly benefited this project.
