Bach: Goldberg Variations Classical Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars A refreshing account of this famous work
To hear the Goldberg played by a string orchestra is a surprise in itself, and this performance throws new light on the work, with clear playing, and the colours that are more difficult to achieve on the keyboard. If you enjoy the work, this recording is a must

Bach: Goldberg Variations

$13.39

In an era when the definition of religious music has expanded to include everything from Christian death-metal to gospel rap, it's nice to know one can still find an album of traditional prayerful tunes. MORE THAN 50 MOST LOVED HYMNS collects popular church songs performed in a sweeping orchestral/choral style that will evoke warm memories of the grand holiday cathedral services of yesteryear. Perhaps inspired by the sounds of angels on high, the music here is majestic in a vintage MGM film-score manner, complete with huge string sections, tinkling harp, and vocals soaring to the heavens. Highlights include the Celtic-tinged "This Is My Father's World," which features an Irish pennywhistle, and a particularly exuberant version of "Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee," which promises to uplift even the most spiritually bereft. The perfect soundtrack to a devout Easter or Christmas celebration, MORE THAN 50 MOST LOVED HYMNS is equally good for the ears and the soul. CD Single
