About
Danish composer Peter Navarro-Alonso’s composition is a note-by-note reinvention of the original Goldberg Variations by J.S. Bach. Thus Alpha’s innovative performance adds no additional notes in comparison to the original. It is merely through the very creative and extreme orchestration that the new composition gains its own life.

Mainly marimba but as each three variations cycle passes they add another percussion instrument until there is another final almost riotous explosion of sound before the reflective return of Bach’s Aria at the end.
