For close to 300 years Bach's Goldberg Variations have awed performers as well as listeners, through an unparalleled combination of a dazzling variety of expression and breath-taking virtuosity with stupendous polyphonic mastery. No wonder then that other musicians than harpsichordists have wanted to make it their own - pianists, first and foremost, but also accordion players and guitarists, flautists and harpists. Having performed and recorded much of the classical as well as the modern string trio repertoire, Trio Zimmermann began working on the Goldberg Variations several years ago, playing an existing arrangement. But in their own words, the three members - among the leading string players of our time - 'soon became captivated by the original score and it's innumerable beauties and details'. As a result they have jointly prepared a performing version which here receives it's first recording. Playing an important part on this album are also the Trio's instruments - all by Antonio Stradivarius, and featured in close-up on the cover.
