Haunting music beautifully played with crystal like clarity and precision. Wonderful!

@KennYWooD2 A charming story nonetheless, don't you think?

@buzukie That story is actually nothing more THAN a story, since the evidence we have surrounding said story doesn't back it up at all.

@grandadpoppyable Jewishness in the music? What kind of statement is that?
-
and Not a hint of jewishness in the music or the interpretation which in itself is an astounding achievment.

Bach wrote the Goldberg Variations for his eponymic student to play them for a Russian count who suffered form insomnia. It fits quite nicely.

From Wikipedia:
The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988, are a set of an aria and 30 variations for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach. First published in 1741, the work is considered to be one of the most important examples of variation form. The Variations are named after Johann Gottlieb Goldberg, who may have been the first performer.
Basically its amazing Bach interpreted here by an amazing artist and musician, Simone Dinnerstein.

Well, I thought, it was quite adequate to the music, or to that, what I felt especially with this interpretation... :-)
