    I'm delighted to learn that you enjoyed it as I did.

    No composer in history has equalled J. S. Bach, and I have never heard anyone who performed his keyboard compositions with the perception of Glenn Gould.

  • he is so not crazy, i realize. you have to be like that to play Bach

  • FANTASTYCZNE !!!

  • He seems like such a creepy dude.

  • @modplugrad Yes indeed it does And at the same time "right" and "human/expressive". THAT'S the genius of Glenn Gould.

  • He sings like my Chinese piano teacher.

  • now THAT is living folks.....he eats his music complety

  • magic...

  • I love how Mr. Gould changes the articulation slightly in the second half to contrast the first!

  • @modplugrad Bach isn't supposed to be played with too much rubato. It's almost metronomical and any rubato a performer uses is at the brink of heresy. Not that great performers don't do it (check out Gould's Sarabande from the 1st partita), but it is frowned upon by some Bach purists

  • JS Bach, Glenn Gould, nothing better. Thanks.
