  • "I don't think there's any great contradiction in loving Strauss, for instance, and loving Schoenberg, who was in a sense his arch-enemy. I can't see any reason that one love has to cancel out another. I think that's one of the great mistakes people make today, and especially the avant-garde people make, when they try to decide who's in, who's out, who's with, and who's not. That's a great mistake, and I wish they'd stop it -- it's all so silly." -Glenn Gould (interview with John McClure)

  • I Don't understand music. But just the way he speaks makes me fascinated.

  • among other things, 2:41 got absolutely charming.

  • The diminished chord is a plague in music. It can act is a cadence in the chord family

  • I question whether this piece is any type of parody at all. If the original title was scherzo furioso this suggests that the piece was originally not a "piss take" but merely a scherzo.

  • Many thanks for sharing this!

  • the guy interviewing him should shut up

  • dam this is hard if english is a foreign language for you...

  • Jumping into this debate a year late, but nonetheless: I happen to own a copy of "The Glenn Gould Reader", a collection of his writings, and I should say that he does in fact support his remarks about Mozart and other composers with sound and detailed musicological arguments.

  • Glenn Gould was Canada's greatest intellectual/musical creation and a true innovator in communications.

    Thank you for posting videos that are so hard to find!
