3 Canons from the Goldberg Variations by JS Bach | Pink Noise Recorder Ensemble

One of the highlights of our June concert at St Stephen's Church in Bristol: the first three canons from The Goldberg Variations, played on a variety of baroque pitch recorders.
Soprano and third flute by Tim Cranmore
Alto by Michael Grinter.
Voice flute by Jack Darach.
Bass by Takeyama Workshop.

lovely. Was Bach writing for actual recorders or have the tunes been re-arranged to suit?

It's an arrangement for recorders of part of a longer work for harpsichord. I heartily recommend listening to the original - very beautiful. :)
