Vikingur Olafsson (piano)About
The selection includes reworks by Bach himself of composers such as Vivaldi and Marcello, and Busoni and transcriptions/reworks of chorales by Víkingur Ólafsson himself.
Víkingur Ólafsson’s interpretations of the baroque repertoire are crystal clear, modern and hauntingly beautiful. In his very own style Víkingur perfectly captures Bach as a master of balance whose music is the ideal combination of emotion and intellect, singing melody and sculpted counterpoint.
