13 Ways of Looking at the Goldberg - Piano

These 12 diverse new variations on the orignal Bach aria were commissioned by the Irving S. Gilmore International Keyboard Festival for pianist Gilbert Kalish, who gave the first performance at the Festival on May 2, 2004 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. 'An interesting look at how different composers approach the same theme.'
