Bassline Fabulous: J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations with Machine Dazzle

Machine Dazzle and Catalyst Quartet will create an immersive dive into J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations-one of Western music's wildest, yet most logical, exercises in transformation. Responding to Catalyst Quartet's acclaimed Goldberg arrangement, Machine Dazzle will theatrically interpret the music's inescapable evolution through a personal, emotional lens, with original costumes, props, and set pieces.
