Good morning, everyone. I think that the original question was about finding a MIDI file for the Goldberg variations. The link in the message below is for an audio recording. Interestingly, the following audio recording of the Goldberg variations: http://www.amazon.com/Bach-Goldberg-Variations-Performance-Re-performance/dp/B000LE0THE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1284994601&sr=1-1 was made using a concert grand Disklavier and MIDI file that was derived from the earlier audio recording by Glen Gould. The "re-performance" version is the preferred version because it is in stereo whereas the original Gould recording was in mono. The MIDI data for the re-performance is no commercially available. You can get more information about Zenph Sound Innovations--the company that creates these re-performances--here: http://www.zenph.com/ Regards, PianoBench www.georgelitterst.com www.timewarptech.com

This is a lifeless sequencer arrangement from the sheet music. It is so metronomic as to put anyone to sleep. The velocity is fixed at two or possibly three levels an sticks at each level for long periods. There is absolutely no musical performance to it.
I have not listened to it yet but there is one recording for the Yamaha E-Comp of 2004. Here is the copied info from my file that adds metadata to LX files. Should be able to use this to find it on the Yamaha site. My guess is that it is much better than either of the previously recommended "performances".

There is a wrong link for the complete program of Vera Oussetskia on the E-Comp site for the regular MIDI files. It is correct for the HI res. The Goldberg Vars as a single work is correctly linked.

I listened to the E-comp performance listed below and it is not very good. Also just the first 14, not the whole set of variations. I do not generally like Bach on the piano. Most pianists play Bach without any feeling. There are notable exceptions and when they arise they can be truly remarkable. Gould's performance is one of these. I could listen to it every day and I am not a big Bach fan. I gave up on the E-Comp performance after about 2 minutes.
