When the world seems to be at an end, there are always Bach's Goldberg variations...
And then, they play it on a couple of guitars! Wow! #bach #GoldbergVariations

It is the start of my second week off from uni, and on Thursday, I'll be at the Melbourne Recital Centre for Erin Helyard performing Bach's Goldberg Variations on harpsichord. Thirty variations unfolding from a single aria, each one its own universe of mathematical precision and emotional depth. I remember Helyard conducting Handel's Messiah with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in December 2024, and I was in the chorus. His direction brought out those moments where text and music fused into something transcendent.
This week, I should finally get access to my units at the new uni. My Learning Access Plan is now active, which feels good after so much advocacy. These accommodations will create conditions that enable my brain to show what it can do rather than what it can't.
Music has always been the language I understand most fluently. In the architecture of Bach's variations, there's something about the way complexity emerges from simplicity that mirrors how I experience learning itself. One foundational idea, endlessly transformed. Each variation is a different lens, a different pathway to understanding. Perhaps that's why the Goldberg Variations feel so essential right now. They remind me that depth isn't about covering more ground but about exploring what's already there with greater attention.
The space between finishing one semester and beginning another holds its own music. Rest isn't absence. It's the silence between notes that gives them meaning.

It's a little weird that if I wanted to explain how I work now, referring back to my experiments with the rompler orchestrations of Bach is a pretty immediate and direct solution.

#WigmoreHall #AngelaHewitt #GoldbergVariations An absolutely super Angela Hewitt performance of the Bach Goldberg variations - the first time I heard them live. Lovely time with my pianist nephew Markus!

Excellent. Didn't know Bratrice Rana's Goldberg intrrpretation, so glad to encounter it now.
A surprising interpretation, eye opening. I will stay with this recording for a while and see what it does.

My kayak and I, and friend, with a nice kayak they got for next to nothing, got into the river and did #MessingAround in our boats.
And now to listen to my favourite Marco Salcito playing the #GoldbergVariations on classical guitar. Keyboards are grand. And Marco on guitar cannot play as many notes at the same time or over as many octaves.
But the notes he plays and how he plays them opens the Variations up as being emotional and sensual delights. -

Another world. For a little while.

At the other end of the spectrum the Icelandic pianist #VíkingurÓlafsson has released his #Bach #GoldbergVariations and it's everything you could hope for as an interpretation of Bach on a modern piano. Beautifully varied touch, sprightly rhythms, cantabile melodic lines, sure and enlightening architecture. He just can't seem to do any wrong in the recording studio and his choice of repertoire. Bonus he's touring Australia next year! https://tidal.com/album/319058786
