OUT TODAY: “Goldberg Variations / Variations” by Acclaimed Jazz Pianist Dan Tepfer

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

The Jazz Pianist’s Recording of J.S. Bach’s Iconic “Goldbergs”

Along With Tepfer’s Own Improvised Variations to Bach’s

OUT TODAY VIA SUNNYSIDE RECORDS

Dan Tepfer has created a kaleidoscopic experience with his solo album Goldberg Variations / Variations, the jazz pianist approaching J.S. Bach’s masterpiece – one of the classical canon’s most totemic works – as an inspiring font for creativity. Interspersed with his affectionate interpretation of the complete “Goldbergs” are his own improvised variations on Bach’s variations. No Jacques Loussier-style swinging of the classics, Tepfer’s variations are marked by a ruminative joy, spiced with contemporary dissonances and a deep feel for the source as timeless music beyond category. Goldberg Variations / Variations will be released on CD and digitally by Sunnyside Records in the U.S. on November 8th, 2011. In Europe, the album will be issued via Sunnyside/Naïve on November 10th.
