Absolutely Genius,Glenn Gould's polyphony is one of the best ever.every sounds have their freedom and unique, its like they were played by 3or4 instruments.
The Picardy Third in the last measure (the way it is more often played) is probably up for debate. Those often are, especially in the case of Bach. And since they are to some extent debatable, they very often vary from edition to edition. Glenn Gould was an expert on Bach and Baroque music. My guess is that it isn't "wrong."

favorite fugue of all time, there are 3 fugual themes that all come together at the end, magical!
