The spiritual world depicted by a master of baroque keyboard instruments
The Goldberg Variations shines with Leonhardt's rigorous interpretation.
This recording of one of Bach's greatest masterpieces by Gustav Leonhardt, a pioneer of early music performance. The purity of the harpsichord's sound and Leonhardt's intelligent approach highlight the structural beauty of this work. His performance, which clearly distinguishes the character of each variation while maintaining a sense of unity throughout the piece, remains worthy of reference today as a benchmark for Baroque music performance.
