[dejasa11]

These 2 dislikes don't know how to play this !

[kyaraborg]

@dejasa11 i like it and i'm learning it

[TheGentledawn]

Heey he really is humming along. I couldn't hear it at first, but when I put my headphones it was very clear

[suborum]

it seems to me that someone (Gould maybe) is singing behind. Am I crazy?

[pilotlim]

@suborum no.

[wakkarat]

@suborum That's Gould. He's crazy as a fox that took a bite of a diseased loon.

[Cancrizans]

It is as if we were sitting in the middle of the universe, listening to pure sound and imagination.

I really need a steinway...my teacher has a really hard-to-play piano (I think it's a Kuwai) to exercise our fingers.

[pianocookie11]

thats a sad chair but isn't gould humming? gould's amazing.

[SeezyProductions]

This is not boring, its awesome, and i'm learning it

[flippenpinoi]

[Stehnz]

[TheJakwak]

[djstkora]

I love the tempo...

Angryjalapeno, you're almost right -- Gould switched from Steinway to Yamaha in 1981, but at the time he recorded this he was still playing Steinways exclusively. This particular Steinway is unmistakeable. Its action was altered to make it more hair-trigger, and as a result there were a few unfortunate side effects that you can hear if you listen carefully ... reverberation as the hammer bounces back.

My initial reaction was "LOL WHO CARES"

[bboymango]

@labuswa hmm just wondering why did gould switch from a steinway to a yamaha? personally id take a steinway anyday

[str3123]

@labuswa is this beauty recorded on the CD318?

[angryjalapeno]

Gould played on a Yamaha not a Steinway.

[AZENA1997]
