Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations
Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations was first published in 1741 for the harpsichord, and like many of Bach's timeless works, this composition transfers smoothly to the instrumentation of the saxophone quartet. This arrangement was set by American composer David Maslanka, who shared an intimate connection with Bach's writing.
The work begins with the aria, and after 30 variations the aria returns once more to close the composition. Though it is note-for-note equal to the first statement, the Aria da Capo has the weight and maturity of finality, and it is a satisfying conclusion to Bach's massive and truly substantial work.
This performance was given on April 6, 2018 at Baldwin Wallace Conservatory in the featured 'Out of the Bachs' concert.
The Kenari Quartet is:
Bob Eason, soprano saxophone
Kyle Baldwin, alto saxophone
Corey Dundee, tenor saxophone
Steven Banks, baritone saxophone
Applauded for their “flat-out amazing” performances and “stunning virtuosity” (Cleveland Classical), the highly acclaimed Kenari Quartet delivers inspiring performances that transform the perception of the saxophone. The quartet aims to highlight the instrument’s remarkable versatility by presenting meticulously crafted repertoire from all periods of classical and contemporary music.
The Kenari Quartet has found a home performing on many of the premiere chamber music series in the United States. Recent engagements include appearances at Chamber Music Northwest, the Grand Teton Music Festival, and Chamber Music Tulsa, among others. For many chamber music institutions, the Kenari Quartet has been proud to serve as the first ensemble of its kind to be presented.
