font-family:Arial'>Thanks Elaine for offering this memento of our musical hero,
so long gone, so little forgotten. I was just discovering his music in the
summer of 1982, feverishly exploring the LP record collection of my best
friend’s father for the wonderful Bach performances that until then
I’d been mostly unaware of (the 1955 GVs being the exception), and was
distraught at the news of his untimely death, and the terrible knowledge that
the next 30 or more years would not be filled with new recordings from my new
favorite pianist. I’ve since collected all of his Bach on CD, and have
learned to appreciate other pianists in that repertoire as well – Hewitt,
Richter, Barenboim, Tureck, Pollini, Schiff, Arrau, Perahia – these and
more give me continuously new ways of appreciating the old master, but only one
performer is synonymous with Bach, and the choice for my proverbial desert
island has always been clear – Glenn Gould.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
Wow so many of you remembered the 25th. Indeed a charmed birthday, and I would
say Glenn was a good Libra boy. (They are such artistic types!) Well I had
it marked on my calendar too and since it was a not bad day, though threatening
rain a little, I made the trek to the cemetery where birds were singing and
leaves were gently blowing in the wind. I took some flowers, and was glad to
see some already there. I did take a picture and will send anyone who emails me
directly a copy.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
