In this lunchtime recital, harpsichordist Nathaniel Mander performs Bach’s Goldberg Variations, a masterpiece of Baroque music, consisting of an aria and 30 variations. Composed for harpsichord, it’s renowned for its complexity, virtuosity, and ingenious structure. The variations showcase a wide range of musical styles and techniques, from intricate contrapuntal writing to expressive ornamentation.
