<P>Hi all!</P>
<P>do you believe that the performer of the Goldbergs in The Silence of the
Lambs (J.Demme 1991) is Glenn Gould?</P>
<P>download the SOTL excerpts below and (if you want) compare them with all
the published 4 recordings of the GG Goldbergs</P>

(Variation n.7)</P>
<P>there is a discussion about that also on wikitalk ( <A
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AGlenn_Gould">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AGlenn_Gould</A>
)</P>
<P><EM>"I am intimately acquainted with both Gould recordings and with excerpt
heard in SOTL - which is definitely not Gould. I believe the confusion arises
from the SOTL novel, in which Hannibal Lecter is in a hotel room after his
escape, listening to Gould play the Goldberg Variations. I imagine getting the
rights for Gould's recording for the film would have been expensive, and it was
probably cheaper to hire a pianist to play them.THD3 (talk) 18:04, 16 September

<P>I'm honestly a lot more shocked and p****off about how the GG money were used
lately by the Toronto Humane Society against animals, than the fact that the
Bach Goldbergs were used in a fictional psyco-thriller movie as a sort of
"God surrogate"...Anyway about movie soundtracks, average people do not even
care to know the composer's name, so I'm afraid that this is not the way for GG
to widen his admirers list. <BR>Girard movie is of course a piece of art but
imho the main actor was a wrong choice... Maybe only a very good bio-non-bio
cult movie on him à la "Amadeus" with his music as the main character
could do the trick....and Ralph Fiennes or Sam Rockwell coud be imho good actor
choices to impersonate him...</P>
<P>Best,<BR>Stefy</P></FONT></FONT></DIV>

Michael and others,<BR><BR>I haven't seen/listened to
that particular CD yet but will check it
out. <BR>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I was always uncomfortable with the idea of GG's
name/music associated with the "Silence.." and
"Hannibal" movies 'cause I don't think he would have
wanted to be in such creepy things, none of which I've
been able to watch completely through. I just can't
stomach that kind of violent imagery. What does
everyone else think?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>As for him being my fave pianist, when I heard
his Bach Concerto 1 in D Minor with Bernstein I was
hooked. I never tire of listening to his
interpretations of Bach, Brahms, Byrd, Gibbons, and
Sibelius (I've yet to hear all his Beethoven). It's
the phrasing, tempo, and beautiful clarity of his
playing that I find so mesmerizing. Who comes close,
in their own way, since? I'm not that well versed in
all this (help me out) but just from the radio I've
heard some nice playing by Hewitt, Lortie and
Ax.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>But maybe for us it'll aways be Glenn...think of
that Carly Simon song "Nobody does it better..."</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Cheers, Elaine</DIV>

text/plain; charset="us-ascii"<BR><BR>just an
observation. recently i hopefully and expectantly
listened to various <BR>recordings. good ones,
i guess. michelangeli"s lugano recital,
( a dvd ), <BR>serkin's 80'th vienna recital,
late beethoven, ( vhs ), cortot's schumann,
cd, <BR>arrau's chopin grand fantasie on polish
airs, and brendel's farewell recital in
<BR>hanover. well,
frankly, i felt , disappointed, and after a
while, that i <BR>was just listening to
another typical 3 rd year juilliard student's
<BR>recital.------------------------ then i
put on , in desperation, the cd " gg at <BR>the
movies". there was all the
difference. give it a listen. and maybe you
<BR>can explain it . <BR>-------------- next part
