#BachUpsideDown Variation 13 from Bach's Goldberg Variations, first as written, then upside down (i.e. chromatically inverted). This is perhaps my favorite so far. The original variation, the first contemplative and introspective one in the set, is incredibly lovely. It's one of the most straightforwardly sincere of the bunch, with a mix of innocence and sadness that gets me every time. The inversion works shockingly well, with the melody in the bass and the two supporting voices in the treble — a more ominous version of the original, but still just as poignant in my opinion.
