About

United Ensemble of Lucilin, the flagship contemporary music ensemble of the Grand-Duchy of Luxemburg, opened the Fuga Libera collection in June 2004 with a remarkable double CD comprising six creations entrusted to the expert hands of Mark Foster (FUG501). They return for an equally original project.

At the crossroads between period and modern instruments, 'Goldberg's Ghost' takes possession of the score of the Goldberg Variations, from which the Aria, the Quodlibet and the complete canons have been retained, spiced up for the occasion with creations by Garth Knox, Bernard Struber, Ton de Kruyf, Brice Pauset and Marcel Reuter: an astonishing, inspired and prestigious mix.

Anne Galowich's delicate harpsichord opens the ball and Garth Knox sets the tone on viola d'amore, for a fascinating initiatory quest which leads us to reflect on the timelessness of Bach's genius.

To be discovered with eyes closed and greedy ears.
