Classical pianist Simone Dinnerstein came into international acclaim in 2007, when her solo album featuring Bach’s Goldberg Variations appeared on numerous “Best of 2007” lists including those of The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, iTunes “Editor’s Choice Best Classical,” Amazon.com Best CDs of 2007, and Barnes & Noble's Top 5 Debut CDs of 2007. Says the New York Times, “An utterly distinctive voice in the forest of Bach interpretation, Ms. Dinnerstein brings her own pianistic expressivity to the Goldberg Variations, probing each variation as if it were something completely new.”
