Fazil Say : Les Variations Goldberg

The Goldberg Variations are among those unidentified objects of human creation that are impossible to classify or even explain. Without playing repeats, Fazil Say recounts them in his own way, taking each of the variations on a journey through the imaginary world of his mind. Once reaching the end of Bach’s monument, he leads us toward other slopes, other valleys of his thought. Next will follow pieces drawn from his deeply personal “concept albums” Morning/Evening, as well as original compositions.
