  • This version if the Cantata bwv 54 is the most beautiful that I've ever heard.

  • SixthTreeAtNoon: He did not just say who his favourite composer was. The only thing he said is that Bach was the reason he became a musician.

    In one interview with Gould he said his favourite composer was Gibbons, because Gibbons' music could touch him more than any other music. But he also mentioned Bach was more important to him when it came to technique.

  • harpsipiano + countertenor

    love it. glenn forever : D

  • @freshhh1994 Very high english/canadian tenor.

  • Very nice, although technically speaking Bach wasn't Gould's favourite composer... But still a very nice video.

  • astonishing...

  • @ReneArtoisJR Couldn't agree more with THAT quote!

  • @ReneArtoisJR could you, or someone else, please elaborate on that quote?

  • Bach and Dufay are the two most respected denizens of Musical Heaven. Don't ask me how I know.

  • @freshhh1994 No, it's not a castrato. They've gone out of vogue :) It's a counter-tenor, which means that he has a normal speaking voice but he sings with a falsetto.

  • is that a castrati?

  • Please don't use the word "piety" in reference to Glenn Gould.
