quoting this from Mr. Kevin Bazzana's Wondrous Strange: <BR>"--bearing only his
name and dates and the first three bars of the Goldberg Variations (the carver
left off the ornaments)"<BR><BR>I love this book: wonderfully
written.<BR><BR>Best,<BR>SDC<BR><BR>From: Anne French <BR>Date: Thursday, July

<BR>Subject: Re: [f_minor] (no subject)<BR><BR><BR>I cut and pasted this text
from?http://reocities.com/athens/oracle/3545/gould.html<BR><BR><BR>"On Gould's
gravestone (a small plaque actually), there is appropriately etched the first
bars of Bach's Goldberg Variations. It was his signature piece, the recording
which made him famous in 1955."<BR><BR><BR>I have also read in different
books/articles that the first few bars of the Goldberg are etched on his grave
marker. So, I think we can safely say that ?that is indeed the case. I lived in
Buffalo my entire life, a mere 90 miles from Toronto, and never went to see GG's
grave. Now I have moved to California... I'll probably fly 3,000 miles to see it
someday!<BR><BR><BR>Cheers,<BR>Anne<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>On Thu, Jul 8, 2010

number of measures, but for sure that is the music.
