Bach's monumental Goldberg Variations stand alone in the piano literature as a work of unique artistry and brilliance.

Lang Lang first began exploring this masterpiece more than 20 years ago and presents this record as the outcome of a long personal and emotional journey.

Marking a new stage in Lang Lang's artistic development, it is the project of a lifetime.

Alongside a studio recording is a contrasting performance, a single take from a recital in Leipzig's iconic St Thomas Church, where Bach worked and is now buried.

The heart of this project is the deluxe edition - a unique offering with simultaneous studio & live recording.
