Goldberg Variations Main Performer or Conductor: Rosalyn Tureck Instrumentation: Piano Individual Works: Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 Format: Vinyl Record Record Label: Decca Year Released/Recorded: 1958 Total Playing Time: 79 minutes Comments: Donald Morris said: Rosalyn Tureck stands beside Casals, Landowska, in her definitive solo work in Bach. She has monumental greatness in her recorded discography, but nothing comes near matching the near absolute perfection of her "Aria, and 30 Variations " from 1958 at the tender age of 44. At the height of her technical powers, the refined exactitude of her expression exceeds any performance standard one might choose by other interpreters alive or dead Acknowledgements: Thank you to the following for submitting this recording and for your comments: donald morris Date First Submitted: 08/09/1999 Purchasing: Suggested Purchasing Sources Note: Inclusion in this database does not guarantee the availability of any recording.
