On Dec 1 at 23.35, watch Francesco’s premiere concert of Goldberg City Variations recorded at the Bach Festival in Köthen on German channel MDR.
The recording of Francesco Tristano is particularly ambitious. He developed a visualization for the sound of the Goldberg Variations, he understood Bach’s music as an architectural utopia. The idea for this project goes back to the composer and architect lannis Xenakis and his idea of a “cosmic city”.
Golberg City Variations mixes the fantasy of Xenakis, the greek pioneer who imagined the future of urban re development, with Bach’s variation.
The program includes Goldberg Variations BWV 988 (original and edited by Francesco Tristano).
Tickets here.
