Glenn Gould is the best interpreter of Bach, it's no competition. I love Glenn Goud.

Teacher: "You need to practice more, and try to play it quicker."
Me: "But why, Glenn Gould also did it this slow."
I think it's nice like this, because there's different (short) motives in this sinfonia and in this recording you can really hear all the lines.

Love it. Gould makes it sound like it were written in the 20th century.

Where can i find the Ornamented version of this?

takes him 5 minutes to get through 1 page of sheet music

@ceciliadlibitum it's not that simple: playing slow requires a lot of strength to "tense" the musical phrases all the way long, in my opinion it's the reason why only a beast like Richter is able to play Schubert so sloooowly without getting boring for a single second.
