my God he would have been such a great conductor

[whatthecello42]

from 0:44 to the end: Apparently that is how he practiced.

@fuckshitass911 you can ask any composer, and I'm pretty sure they will all say that any piece isn't finished until it's played, so Glenn Gould statement that the interpreter must take the role of a composer, is true. My teacher of musical analysis has been stubborn on teaching that as well, he's a composer himself, I don't really know if he likes Glenn Gould but his ideas are very alike to Gould's when it comes to playing music. And if GG altered something, he always did it on a good foundation

@fuckshitass911 very good point

[mrpossibilities]

Studying how people like Glenn Gould studies, only serves to illustrate a point: Each individual finds his/her own technique and their own way of practicing. The one that better works for us. This worked for Glenn but it doesn't mean every musician should practice like that or make the sounds he made when he played. That worked for him. Each one of us has a little homework to do and meditate on what is it that works for us... and abide by it 'till death.

@whatthecello42 thats actually true. he hardly practiced at all. mostly just read the music over and over

@pacrijna

attempt to modify the score with no regards of the instructions causes the music to deviate from composer's expectations. may not be his intention but he did ruin the music.

he saw most compositions as pile of shit.

there is something called etiqutte, which is practised very often among people who attend regular concerts.

being an ass is a sin. just as spitting on one's grave then claiming you have a bad mood thats beyond your control.

there's no point on continuing this further.

@fuckshitass911

You're using the word ruining as a general truth, it is merely your opinion. Gould cared very much about the music, but he just didn't like some composers.

Your second sentence doesn't make sense because Gould believed that piano playing was composing the piece ''as it happened''. Yet again, applauding something bad purely out of animosity is your way of doing things and lastly : Being an ass is not a universal sin.

learn the difference between observation and opinion?

@pacrijna

so suddenly all the 'masters' in piano had the special priviledge to ruin a music in any way he liked without having to care about the notes.

you can't seem to be able to differentiate between composing and piano playing.

-you may not like the music but i think it is natural to applause to show respect for the player for their effort (not including attempts to murder the composer)

surely i'm not the only person who do that?

- being an ass in bad universally.

try harder.
