Description: | Bach Goldberg Variations is an album by David Fray, released in 2021. The album is a classical CD.
Bach maintains a strong presence in David Frayā??s Erato discography, now expanded with a landmark of the solo keyboard repertoire: the Goldberg Variations.
ā??The Goldberg Variations are a real test,ā?¯ says Fray. ā??They are the work of a lifetime, perhaps a work about life itself ā?¦ a kind of rite of passage, a journey. Every element of human life is in them ā?¦ When you return to the theme after the 30 variations, as you look back over everything that has happened in the last hour-and-a-half, itā??s as if you're at the end of your life. Few works give such a sense of eternity.ā?¯ Frayā??s playing of Bach has been praised by BBC Music Magazine as ā??exactly nuanced, its technical control aristocratically poised, producing sonorities of irresistibly pellucid light and shade.ā?¯
The French pianist made this recording in the Chapelle de PiĆ©tat in Barbazan-Debat, a small town in the Pyrenees in south-western France. ā??I had the idea of recording this album in the place where I grew up,ā?¯ he explains. ā??I've always loved this little chapel, and these spaces have a unique way of bringing the sound to life ā?¦ You shouldn't aim for perfection but for authenticity: to produce something that is natural, coherent and tells a story that everyone can relate to, because it's the story of humanity.ā?¯ - |
