SIMONE DINNERSTEIN
J.S. BACH: GOLDBERG VARIATIONS BWV 988
Cat. No: CD80692 Release Date: 24 September
“This recording contains some of the most beautiful, sensitive, intelligent and manifestly sincere playing you’re ever likely to hear.” – Piano magazine review (Sept/Oct)
Brooklyn-born pianist Simone Dinnerstein decided to learn Bach’s Goldberg Variations as a project during her maternity. It led to her career taking off in a way she could never have expected. She performed the complete Goldberg Variations at her self-produced and critically acclaimed New York debut at Carnegie Hall in November 2005 which led to the release of this recording - her Telarc debut which she had recorded in March 2005 with GRAMMY Award winning producer Adam Abeshouse. As a result of the performance she gained an international manager, signed an exclusive record contract with Telarc, and is now touring internationally.
Simone Dinnerstein will give her debut recital at the Wigmore Hall on 23 October 2007
- Simone was featured by The New York Times as an artist "poised for a breakthrough" in September 2006
- The piano she plays, a 1903 Hamburg Steinway model D concert grand, was originally owned by the town council of Hull, England – during WW2 the town hall was severely damaged by bombing but the piano survived, and was restored in New York City in time to be used at the re-opening of the World Trade Center’s Winter Garden.
