J.S. Bach: Works & Reworks

Víkingur Ólafsson is a musical free spirit with a mission. Ólafsson's second Deutsche Grammophon album, the pithily entitled Bach, contains a mixture of original works and transcriptions, which the pianist has woven together in intriguing style."It would all mean nothing without Bach," says Ólafsson. The infinitely inspirational power of Bach's music will be heard again on Ólafsson's second Bach album, which will bring together atmospheric reworkings of music by composers such as Hans-Joachim Roedelius, Ben Frost, Peter Gregson and Valgeir Sigurðsson - reimaginings that artfully defragment the creations of Bach. It will also feature a moving and intimate new work Ólafsson has written in memory of his late friend and colleague Jóhann Jóhannsson.

"Everything is there in Johann Sebastian's music: architectural perfection and profound emotion," says Ólafsson. In his hands, the universe that is Bach shines with new light.
