J. S. Bach: Goldberg Variations; Italian Concerto
Ralph Kirkpatrick
Beeping Classics GJ 052 [56:06]
"For all their lyricism and tragic passion and exuberance, the Aira and the Variations seem of a divine substance entirely refined and purified of anything personal or ignoble, so that in playing them one seems only the unworthy mouthpieces of a higher voice."
