The Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue in D minor, BWV 903, is a work for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach probably composed it during his time in Köthen from 1717 to 1723. The piece was already regarded as a unique masterpiece during his lifetime. It is now often played on piano. An autograph of this work is not known. The musicologist Walther Siegmund-Schultze pinpoints the work to the "fermenting Köthen works" because of its improvisatory and expressive nature, using all keys.

This album has an average beat per minute of 97 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 66/144 BPM). See its BPM profile at the bottom of the page.

Schiff plays the variations with elegance, exactly as Goldberg would have liked to hear them. If you are not so comfortable with the famous Gould interpretation and ashamed to admit it, go for this one. a shear pleasure. Great recordings of the Goldberg Variations by Andras Schiff.
