Wonderful WONDERFUL !!!
A fabulous 19 hours of music and commentary from, in my humble opinion, the greatest pianist ever.Glenn Gould has exquisite taste in music, as well as the ability to share his enthusiasm and passion.A natural teacher, explaining complex musical terms in a way that ordinary, non-musical people can easily understand.Then, he plays. You can see and hear the absolute joy of his playing. Awe-inspiringly beautiful.There is a lot of playing and some pieces have not been recorded elsewhere. So, this is a real treat for Glenn Gould fans to hear "new" recordings.He stopped giving concerts in 1964. And I think he wanted listeners to have a more up-close and personal experience of music than the concert hall distant relationship. You will get that up-close and personal experience with this set.This DVD collection is a "must have" for any person who loves music, and for anyone who wants to learn more about music.It will most certainly entertain, educate, and delight.
