About
Thibaut Garcia is one of the most acclaimed classical guitarists of his generation, praised for his playing that combines virtuosity and poetic sensitivity.
Born from a deep artistic friendship with guitarist Antoine Morinère, this album offers a fresh take on Bach’s masterpiece Goldberg Variations, now reimagined for two guitars.
The arrangement, from Garcia and Morinière themselves, is the result of a full year of work during which, quoting the artists, they focused on “how to adapt the keyboard work for two guitars, while preserving the illusion of a single performer”.
Twin guitars helped in their artistic endeavour: the album is recorded on two guitars cut from the same tree, and realised especially for the project by luthier Hugo Cuvillier.
This creative process also includes a retreat to the Abbey of Solesmes, where Garcia and Morinière experienced, for a few days, the life of monks, with the aim of better understanding Bach’s spirituality.

What most emerges from this new version by guitarists Thibaut Garcia and Antoine Morinière is therefore an absolute commitment to structural clarity on the one hand and a more nuanced approach to embellishment whether timbral, dynamic or rhythmic on the other.
