J.S. BACH\u2019S COMPLETE & ORIGINAL GOLDBERG VARIATIONS WITH NEW COMPOSITION BY JOE CHINDAMO FOR VIOLIN
\nZoe Black \u2013 Violin \/ Joe Chindamo – Piano
\n“A feature of Baroque counterpoint is that it allows composers to include many layers without compromising the underlying architecture. Thus a version of J.S. Bach\u2019s legendary Goldberg Variations, in which the piano part remains unaltered but an extra violin line is added, can represent an exciting and daring venture consistent with the characteristics of the style. That such an undertaking requires great harmonic knowledge scarcely needs mentioning. It also requires a refined sense of melody. Happily, composer and pianist Joe Chindamo displays such sensitivity, as well as learning, in what is a successful addition to the Master\u2019s great work.
\nThe playing throughout this music is of the highest quality. Ms. Black\u2019s tone is rich, her sense of melodic line sure, and her rhythms powerful. Mr. Chindamo\u2019s touch is liquid, his exposition cultured.”
\n-David James – Music Journalist
\nZoe Black and Joe Chindamo are a new voice in contemporary classical music. In the past year, they performed at the Australian Festival of Chamber Music, the Port Fairy Spring Festival, Canberra\u2019s Street Theatre, and more. They are regular performers on ABC (Australian Broadcast Company) FM\u00a0Sunday<\/span><\/span>\u00a0Live and have their own series at the Melbourne Recital Centre. In February 2014, following the release of their CD Dido’s Lament, they were featured in Limelight and nominated for an ARIA Award for best classical album of 2014. The duo performs Bach’s Goldberg Variations, with additional new compositions for violin.
\n“If Alfi does this properly, this version of the Golbergs will be known as the next major development of the work since Glenn Gould.”
