Vincent van Amsterdam - J.S. Bach: Goldberg Variations arr. for Accordion (2019)

Genre: Classical | Label: Odradek Records

Award-winning accordionist Vincent van Amsterdam performs J.S. Bach’s Goldberg Variations, one of the great masterpieces of Western music. The music of J.S. Bach has been heard in countless guises, from those intended to be meticulous in their authenticity, to loose, improvisatory interpretations. Bach’s treatment of his own music was practical and versatile, often tailored to the musicians available rather than an ideal ensemble, so it seems likely that the composer himself would treat this spectrum of approaches with generosity and pleasure.

Riley's ground-breaking work, In C for Instruments, was also premiered at the San Francisco Tape Music Center in 1964 with Oliveros on accordion.

Few instruments are as close to the present as the accordion is. Its own history has defined it: the chromatic accordion, in its present form, dates back to the mid-nineteenth century, but its great evolution in repertoire has not begun until the middle of the twentieth century. Therefore, it is a young instrument compared to others such as the violin or the flute, but it has been precisely the path it had not traversed what has marked the spectacular growth of the accordion in the last decades.
