I am an immense fan of Gould. Check out his 1955 version of Bach's Goldberg Variations and his later work on The Well-Tempered Klavier. I've never listened to his Solitude Trilogy, but I have heard they are quite amazing.
It is interesting to listen to him; if you listen closely in all of his recordings, he hums and taps his foot constantly across the recordings, because he was incredibly idiosyncratic (and a total Aspie).
But seriously, he was the greatest pianist of the 20th century, no doubt. |

| How can you say that, Theldorrin? Bach is amazingly varied and colorful. I love his violin sonatas. |

| He's like Vivaldi. His compositions are background music. |

| I will agree on Vivaldi, but Bach definitely can hold my attention. |

| Also, Glenn Gould is gay for disliking Chopin. |

I've got Glenn Gould over here (we just finished shooting some hoops) and he says you're gay for disliking Bach, so it looks like we've hit a stalemate. _________________ If I ever want a moron's opinion you'll be the first one I ask

| Anyway, it WOULD be gay to dislike Bach if you played one of those primitive instruments that he wrote so much awful music for (like a Harpsichord). |

| I think the hottest woman I've ever met was a stripper who could play the harpsichord. |

That's fucking awesome!!! And even though he kind of sucks, he did that after only playing for like a month. _________________ If I ever want a moron's opinion you'll be the first one I ask

Every single thing about that video is incredible. I like how whenever they start or stop, it sounds like the THX ad before movies. _________________ If I ever want a moron's opinion you'll be the first one I ask
