Christopher Hinterhuber: "Music which was made for dancing"

Variations 1, 2, 3. Our first stop is in Vienna, Austria with Professor Christopher Hinterhuber, a celebrated pianist for whom the Goldberg Variations has been a consistent source of inspiration. Hinterhuber connects variations 1, 2, and 3 to musical traditions such as the polonaise, and shows how Bach's music exists in relation to his predecessors. ‍Interview and performance recorded October 25, 2017 in Vienna, Austria.
