  • definitivamente es maravillosa su interpretación, meter 4 voces en un solo instrumento y que se definan claramente no algo fácil y lo hace de forma maravillosa, el tempo me parece un poco rápido pero muy bueno.

  • Yes! I would like to see the libretto from this . . .

  • simply AMAZING!!!!!! THANKS FOR POST

  • I can just invision ol Bachy sitting in an easy chair, white stockinged feet up, sipping on a Starbucks listening to Glenn 2 feet away at his Chickering (although this sounds more like the Stein). When he finished, Bach says "Wow I never thought to move the accents around like that. You seem to improve on everything." It's 130am, Toronto and Gould says" hey lets go get some scrambles and toast"

    Yeah I know, time travel. Lots of fun in the head. You can make anything work there.

  • The best of the best!

  • Beautiful melding of the minds of two geniuses: Johann Sebastian Bach and Glenn Gould. Brilliant performance and amazing music...

  • manuelkatarino: muy bien dicho!

  • Gould suonava per se', e il suo canticchiare in accompagnamento al suonare e' il suo coinvolgimento fisico.

  • Fa parte della sua interpretazione. Lui sente di dover canticchiare. Non lo controllava lui il canto, ma le sue emozioni. E' un genio, e basta.
