Glenn Gould plays Grieg piano sonata in e minor Op 7 III. Alla menuetto, ma poco più lento

[sfykthhhfft]

the fact is not that he plays it too slow,but that he CAN play it so slow without her losing any meaning!It's outstanding!

this sounds like a damn funeral march....

Ces notes pénètrent jusqu'au plus profond de mon être et transpercent mon coeur... puis, je vis un moment dans l'oubli.

He makes it very forlorn sounding at this speed.

I think this movement should be played in a slow 'stately' manner, but this is going wayyyy to far imho.

[BarbaraPloyer333]

He looks bored!!!

Ah, the genius and his talent- he must have been one of the most amazing talents to have ever set foot on earth.

way to slow.. but great interpretation:)

I've read some of these comments posted on this video and it's almost as if some people are saying "How dare this man not play the piece exactly as I want him to?"

Erano lontani parenti G&G

...o sbaglio?

[str3123]

@hypsophilus la questione è controversa. Nonostante è ciò che Gould affermi, non sembrerebbe esserci nessuna prova certa.

[Deimosxsz]

i liked the interpretation. Its true, its very slow, but its beautifully played. You can adapt to that.

[camilo8907]

Once again, like the first movement, he played it beautiful but slow, I know that gould usually plays different than the rest of the world and he do it wonderfully but in this performance I disagree whit him.

[cwcascales]

'poco più lento" a little more slow.

It's supposed to be slow. Nothing to "disagree" about. You either like the tempo or you don't. Glenn Gould never played a piece the same way twice. It's a matter of taste. I happen to like yhis thoughtful interpretation a lot.
