I have been thinking about the plan to make an orchestral transcription of "Goldberg Variations" for a long time, as one of the examples of collective music-making, where most of the work would be typical of the style of a piano concerto, and would also include chamber ensembles both with a pianist and solo.
Total duration (with some repetitions) - 50 min.
Some variations are played:
Piano + Orchestra (1,2,3,4,6,8,10,11,12,14,16,18,20,21,24,25,26,27.28,29)
Orchestra only (19, 30),
Brass only (4),
Wood winds only (9),
Brass + Wood winds only (22),
Piano + Soloists from the Orchestra (7, 15, 17)
Piano only (13)
Prelude-Aria (Theme) begins with the pianist and after 8 measures the orchestra gradually turns on. The same Postlude-Aria theme at the end of the composition has an inversion orchestration, when everyone starts playing together (Piano + Orchestra) and then the orchestra gradually stops playing and only one pianist remains.
Audio (mp3) incudes excerpts of Variations ## 1,2,4,5,6,7,11,14,19,20,21,22,28,29,30.
