"We seriously have to consider the idea that Gould was playing Bach better than Bach himself. It may even be better than Bach had intended." Yes, just as Shakespeare is probably performed with more depth and nuance than even Shakespeare could have foreseen. As stifled as our culture may be, the collective intelligence and sophistication of people still grows with each generation. What's amazing about a master like Bach is how few modifications are necessary to keep it pertinent even today.

@Yoshi5020 ha!

bullshit.

no offense to gould, he is incredible, but nobody can play a piece better than the creator.

On top of that, have you ever heard the story about the french man who wanted to duel Bach in a harpsichord battle? The man showed up at the place they were to duel at, heard Bach practicing (as Bach got there before anybody else) and walked straight back out to his carriage and left back to France.

Dear almighty lord, please bring us back Glenn Gould, we'll give you Lang Lang in return.

@colourfulwithaU Bach also was well known for his extremely good improvisations. to watch Bach improvise on any given tune would probably beat watching Glenn Gould play a piece that had already been written out.

If Bach had been playing these pieces, he would vary them even from his own writing, so imagine how much more interesting it would be to listen to 20 different types of goldberg variations.

@colourfulwithaU Well, I agree with what you're saying especially concerning Sibelius, but Bach was well known to be highly talented.

To me it is as simple as a comparison of compositional works.Gould excelled at playing Bach/Beethoven, etc. but his own musical creations are very dull and exceedingly lacking of a major element that Bach, quite obviously, had. That major element is indeed the reason why I hold Bach at a higher level in regards to talent as well as genius.

@SqueezeMyLemonBabe

The fact that Bach was good at playing the keyboard is no indication that he was better than Glenn Gould. We also don't know that he wasn't as good as Glenn Gould, since we haven't heard him play and we never will.

@SqueezeMyLemonBabe

The idea that nobody can play a piece better than the composer is really untrue on so many levels. Your first mistake is the assumption that a composer has mastered every instrument (s)he writes for, which is almost invariably not the case. Sibelius, for example, wrote magnificent music for the violin, including one concerto, but his violin performance career was a failure.
