  • Description

    Collectors' limited edition on 180g white vinyl.

    The late great Canadian pianist Glenn Gould made two significant and highly acclaimed recordings of Bach's Goldberg Variations, the first in 1955 when he was just twenty-two, presented here on 180g white vinyl, and the second a quarter of a century later in 1981 when he was nearing the end of his life. Both recordings stand as benchmarks of the repertoire, offering fascinating insights into the music and Gould's approach to it. These recordings have never been out of print - a mark of their status and the respect they command in the canon of Bach recordings.

    Description

    COMPLETE ALBUM + BONUS TRACK -180g VIRGIN VINYL - LIMITED EDITION. Specially prepared liner notes by renowned music writer Brian Morton.

    Canadian pianist Glenn Gould (1932-1982) became one of the best-known and most celebrated classical pianists of the 20th century and particularly renowned as an interpreter of the keyboard music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Gould's playing was distinguished by his remarkable technical proficiency and his capacity to articulate the polyphonic texture of Bach's music.

    This release presents Gould's complete original 1955 rendition of Bach's Goldberg Variations(Columbia, ML-5060). The work launched the pianist's career as a renowned international player and became one of the most well-known piano recordings. Sales were astonishing for a classical album at that time - 40,000 copies by 1960, and more than 100,000 by the time of Gould's death in 1982.
