Kimiko Ishizaka, piano
Presented by Open Goldberg Project
DETAILS:
The Open Goldberg Project presents German-Japanese pianist Kimiko Ishizaka on tour with Bach’s Well Tempered Clavier, Volume 1. Ms. Ishizaka, a pianist of Japanese heritage born in Germany, believes that music should be accessible to everybody, especially the works of the great masters such as Johann Sebastian Bach. When she decided to record Bach’s Goldberg Variations, she bypassed the traditional channels for music production and went straight to her fans to help her launch the Open Goldberg Project in 2012. The Project brings a new recording of a complete performance of Goldberg Variations played on a Bösendorfer 290 Imperial Grand, and is available for download absolutely free. DOWNLOAD NOW
"She has the fleet fingers to speed through the virtuoso variations with compelling clarity and the sensitivity to probe the dramatic potential of the slower, more profound numbers,
pleasurably aided by her consistently lovely tone."
