Víkingur Ólafsson has just completed his world tour with Bach's Goldberg Variations and is already releasing six new interpretations of the composer's music, four of which he arranged himself. He recorded the piano arrangements of Bach's sacred music in Reykjavík's Harpa concert hall in January. Víkingur Ólafsson: "When I
play Bach, I am reminded that historical eras in music are notions we superimpose on what is essentially a continuum: an unbroken thread linking us all, a running stream flowing through us – what the Germans, incidentally, call a Bach." Continuum is Víkingur Ólafsson's personal Bach diary, a dialog with Bach's music and an ongoing tribute to his artistry.
The EP will be available on 180g black vinyl from October 18th in the Deutsche Grammophon Store.
Tracklist:
Side A:
01. Cantata, BWV 159: Es ist vollbracht (Arr. Ólafsson for Piano)
02. Cantata, BWV 21: Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis (Arr. Ólafsson for Piano)
03. Cantata, BWV 150: Nach dir, Herr, verlanget mich (Arr. Ólafsson for Piano)
Side B:
01. Das alte Jahr vergangen ist, BWV 614 (Arr. Kurtág for Piano 4 Hands)
02. Cantata, BWV 12: Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen (Arr. Ólafsson for Piano)
03. Komm, süßer Tod, BWV 478 (Arr. Bauer for Piano)
