Víkingur Ólafsson has just completed his world tour with Bach's Goldberg Variations and is already releasing six new interpretations of the composer's music, four of which he arranged himself. He recorded the piano arrangements of Bach's sacred music in Reykjavík's Harpa concert hall in January. Víkingur Ólafsson: "When I play Bach, I am reminded that historical eras in music are notions we superimpose on what is essentially a continuum: an unbroken thread linking us all, a running stream flowing through us – what the Germans, incidentally, call a Bach." Continuum is Víkingur Ólafsson's personal Bach diary, a dialog with Bach's music and an ongoing tribute to his artistry. 


This deluxe version consists of the previously released single covers for each track of the EP, which will be available physically as cover cards together with the black 180g vinyl from October 18th at Deutsche Grammophon.
