Customer Reviews of The Glenn Gould Collection Vol. 13 - Goldberg Variations
Ridiculously incredible. Absolutely authoritative. Current 3rd party price $138 ? I just got this for under $30, I won't say from where, but it was not that difficult, from a huge online vendor that rhymes with Freeway. Anyway, this is one of the top 5 piano DVD's of all time. I'll bet you you $150 Gould in 1981 played this music BETTER than J.S. Bach ever did. This Bruno, who made these awesome classical music films, thank you sir. If you dig Bach and you like extremely masterful piano playing, you already have this!
A Stunning Goldberg
We are fortunate to count three Goldberg's recorded by Gould. It is quite astonishing to watch this rendition compared to his earlier 1955 recording which most critics seem to call the "Gold" standard for this piece. Seeing Gould perform this piece in this new way with a clear linkage between the variations is something not present in the earlier release where each variation seems to stand on its own. Another big plus is that there is very little humming compared to earlier Gould and thus much less distraction to this amazing performance. I would call your attention to something not much taught in concervatories these days -- finger substitution--watch Gould's technique. ALso, he apparently play the Goldberg's completely through without stop--something contrary to his "normal" practice of combining bits and pieces of different takes to produce what you hear on a CD. Stunning photography, exquisite performance and outstanding sound make this a must-have for any musician. Observe the passion!
AMAZING!
I bought this DVD new on ebay--one seller has it almost always listed--for only $39.95 brand new. The DVD is pure amazement. I've watched it over and over and over. You'll see the best Bach student ever molding the masters work. Don't pay crazy prices here...keep looking on ebay unless the prices come down here.
