Glenn Gould
Glenn Herbert Gould[fn 1][fn 2] (25 Eylül 1932 – 4 Ekim 1982) 20. yüzyılın en ünlü klasik müzik sanatçılarından Kanadalı piyanist.[1] Özellikle Johann Sebastian Bach'ın klavye eserlerini yorumlarken gösterdiği teknik üstünlük ve polifonik müzik yapısını artikule edebilme yeteneğiyle ünlendi.
Romantik Dönem eserlerinin çoğunu yorumlamayı reddeden Glenn Gould, her ne kadar Bach kayıtlarıyla tanınmış olsa da Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn ve Brahms gibi birçok bestecinin eserlerini yorumladı.
31 yaşında konser vermeyi bıraktı ve stüdyo kayıtlarına ağırlık verdi. Liszt'in piyano için yazdığı Beethoven senfonileri transkripsiyonlarını kaydetti.
En ünlü kayıtları arasında Goldberg Çeşitlemeleri gösterilebilir. Gould ayrıca bir yazar, besteci, orkestra şefi ve yayıncı olarak bilinmekteydi.
- ↑ Bazzana (2003, p. 27) states, "Gould's first name is frequently misspelled as 'Glen' in documents (including official ones) dating back to the beginning of his life, and Gould himself used both spellings interchangeably throughout his life."
- ↑ According to Bazzana (2003, p. 24), "[Gould's] birth certificate gave his name as 'Gold, Glenn Herbert.'
- Full circumstances of the name-change can be found in Bazzana (2003, pp. 24–26).
- According to Bazzana (2003, p. 27), "At least as far back as the mid-eighteenth century, there were no Jews in this particular Gold lineage."
- Friedrich first states that Gould performed the Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 30 (Opus 109) Friedrich (1990, p. 108) but later states that he performed the Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 31 (Opus 110) Friedrich (1990, p. 354). Bazzana (2003, p. 229) cites Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 30 (Opus 109).
- Friedrich (1990, p. 27) dates this incident on the basis of a discussion with Gould's father, who is cited by Friedrich as stating that it occurred "when the boy was about ten".
- In their documentary film Glenn Gould: A Portrait Till & Tovell 1985, Glenn Gould's father recalled that Glenn "would not come out [of his bedroom] until he memorized the whole music" [regarding one of Beethoven's piano concertos].
- In outtakes of the Goldberg Variations, Gould describes his practising technique by composing a drill on Variation 11, remarking that he is "still sloppy" and with his usual humour that "a little practising is in order." He is also heard practising other parts of the Goldbergs.
- There are two other Gould recordings of the Goldberg Variations. One is a live recording from 1954 CBC Records (PSCD 2007); the other is live recorded in Moscow on May 7, 1957 and in Salzburg on August 25, 1959 (Sony SRCR 9500). It is part of the The Glenn Gould edition and has been re-released on CD on Sony Classical Records (SMK 52685).
- Gould discusses this in the 1974 Bruno Monsaingeon film series Chemins de la Musique (Ways of the Music). His 24 part series features Gould in four of those parts: La Retraite (The Retreat), L'Alchimiste (The Alchemist), 1974, Partita No. 6 (Bach's Partia No 6). The four parts on Gould were re-released in 2002 on DVD as Gould: the alchemist Monsaingeon 2002.
- The Schubert can be seen briefly in the film Hereafter Monsaingeon 2006. The transcription of Bruckner's 8th symphony Gould alludes to in an article Gould 1987 where he deprecates its "sheer ledger-line unplayability"; the Strauss opera playing can be seen in one of the Humphrey Burton conversations and is referred to by almost everyone who saw him play in private.
- Bazzana (2003, pp. 352–368) In a section, quotes Gould: "They say I'm a hypochondriac, and, of course, I am."
- Ostwald (1997, p. 329) specifies "No physical abnormalities were found in the kidneys, prostate, bones, joints, muscles, or other parts of the body that Glenn so often had complained about."
- This is discussed and can be seen in the 1959 National Film Board of Canada documentary film On and Off the Record Koenig & Kroitor 2004.
- The claim that Gould "never shook hands" is exaggerated. Friedrich (1990, p. 267) quotes Timothy Findley: "Everybody said you never touched his hands, you never try to shake hands with him, but the first thing he did to me was to offer to shake hands. He offered me his hand in a very definite way, none of this tentative, 'don't-touch-me' stuff."
- These include his famous "self-interview", his book review of a biography written about him (in which he refers to himself in the third person)—not to mention the various appearances of his "alter egos" in print, radio, or TV, including an "extended and rather strained radio joke show", ("Critics Callout Corner" on the Silver Jubilee Album, 1980) which Kingwell (2009, p. 180) comments: "The humour is punishing... There can be no excuse for it, and the one clear lesson of the recording is that it could exist only because of the stature of its creator. Gould in effect called in twenty-five years of chits from Columbia when he got them to release this embarrassing piece of twaddle."
- These comments can be found in essays in Gould (1987).
- See Gould (1999) for an example.

- ATCM is Associate, Toronto Conservatory of Music. The Conservatory received its royal charter in 1947 and became The Royal Conservatory of Music.
- Gould: "The piano was a means to an end for him, and the end was to approach Beethoven." See Tovell (1959) 07:40 minutes in.
- During Gould's 1957 concert performances in Moscow, Vladimir Ashkenazy labelled him a phenomenon Till & Tovell 1985.
