Elena Valentini, Matteo Liva
The 19th-century reclamation of Bach’s music, spearhead byMendelssohn and then Schumann, was later to be further developedmost famously by Ferruccio Busoni. However, another key figure wascomposer and organist Joseph Rheinberger, whose arrangementfor two pianos of the Goldberg Variations was made in the spring of1883. Noting that the work had been ‘the object more of theoreticalappreciation than musical performance’ Rheinberger sought to clarify itsimitative polyphony and where he felt it necessary, added new parts ofhis own writing to the original score, to create a viable Bach-Rheinbergercomposition.
