  3. L.A. Chamber Orchestra Performs Bach’s Goldberg Variations as part of Westside Series


Los Angeles Chamber Orchestras Westside Chamber Series features a musical twist with Bachs Goldberg Variations for String Orchestra, led by Concertmaster Margaret Batjer, on Saturday, March 12, 2022, 8 pm, at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica. Bachs monumental work, comprised of 30 variations originally written for solo keyboard and published in 1741, gained prominence in the twentieth century with pianist Glenn Goulds famed 1955 recording of it and garnered further exposure with violinist Dmitry Sitkovetskys 1984 arrangement for strings, the version LACOs is presenting. The brilliant arrangement for strings dedicated to Glenn Gould honors note-for-note Bachs seminal work, long a staple of the piano repertoire, while imbuing it with a fresh new musical perspective that brings to the work an entirely different spectrum of timbre and sonorities.Batjer, lauded for her gleaming warmth (Los Angeles Times), high-flying performances and ability to make her instrument purr and soarwith an engrossing combination of intensity and technical fluency (San Francisco Classical Voice), is downright exciting to watch and hear (Violinist.com). She has served as concertmaster of Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra since 1998, which has featured her on numerous world premieres and CDs, including a Deutsche Grammophon recording of Bachs Concerto for Two Violins with violinist Hilary Hahn.Tickets are $58 and may be purchased online at laco.org or by calling LACO at 213 622 7001 x1. Discounted tickets are also available by phone for seniors 65 years of age and older and for students.
