J.S. Bach / Schliessmann - Goldberg Variations BWV98

Burkard Schliessmann is a unique interpreter, never afraid to find a new expression and always searching for the heart of the music and the composer's inspiration, whether in the Romantic world or that of J. S. Bach. Among other awards, Schliessmann won three silver medals at the Global Music Awards 2017 for his Divine Art Chopin album, and has been awarded the Goethe-Plakette by the city of Frankfurt. This recording of the Goldberg Variations was originally released in 2007 and was highly acclaimed: "ambitious and really spectacular" (AllMusic); "thoughtfully simple, always finely worked out" (FonoForum); Critics Choice 2008 (American Record Guide); Recording of the Month (MusicWeb International).
