Goldberg Variations

Experience the magic of Nathaniel Mander as he takes you on a musical journey through the exquisite Goldberg Variations. Join us at The Old Library in Colchester for an unforgettable evening. Continuing his series of concerts exploring the baroque keyboard repertoire, Nathaniel is delighted to showcase this masterful composition; a set of variations which span the entire gamut of human feeling all based on an aria of exquisite beauty. Don't miss this opportunity to witness a talented artist bring to life one of Bach's most beloved compositions.

Nathaniel Mander is a harpsichordist known for his expressive, elegant and virtuosic style; his performances as recitalist and continuo player have taken him across the world. He trained at the Royal Academy of Music with Carole Cerasi and is recognised as one of the leading keyboard artists of his generation.

As solo recitalist Nathaniel has performed internationally a wide ranging repertoire from the Elizabethan Virginalists, through the sonatas of Mozart and Haydn, and right up to the music of Chopin and Schubert on fortepiano. His 2022 recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations received brilliant reviews across the board, and he was awarded the highest accolade by Dutch specialist classical music magazine, Luister.
