@Samoriah Of course, it's a matter of taste. But please remember that when there is some pianist trying to play Bach, the model to match is ALWAYS Gould. Who d'you think is better than Gould playing the Goldbergs? Schiff? Landowska? Baremboim? Who do you listen to?

You know how you take a picture to the barber and say, "I want my hair to look like this"? Well I showed this to my piano teacher and said, "I want to sound like this"
Best performance of this piece ever! Thank you Bach, Gould, and jormungard.

The chair he's sitting in would creak and groan during his playing, causing no end of hair-pulling from his audio engineers..

@stefano975 I would say I just the opposite.



yeah, Glen Gould is definitely a "crazy genius" as you said, and one of the most unique pianists ever. His interpretations got me into Bach, so I'm glad he reaches you too. He's definitely on another planet when he plays.
