Pianist Lang Lang releases new extended edition of Goldberg Variations By Chen Nan | chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2021-02-12 16:46 Share
Following the worldwide success of his
Goldberg Variations album, Lang Lang now presents a series of new recordings as part of the
Goldberg Variations
Extended Edition, set for digital release on Friday. These are some of the works in which the pianist immersed himself during his intensive study of J.S. Bach s Baroque masterpiece. The more time I spent with the
Goldberg Variations, the more I wanted to know about Bach, his contemporaries and the composers he later inspired, Lang Lang said. Each of the new pieces I ve recorded for this project have added to my understanding of his music.
