Good morning all,<div><br></div><div> One of the "32 films" has a voice-over describing the various pianos GG had played on tour. At least one of the instruments had been so out of whack that Gould wondered how the audience had tolerated it, and he said something about 'not being that fond of the sounds a piano makes,' or something to this effect. Unless my comprehension/memory are shot...</div><div><br></div><div> This started me thinking: did Gould say or write much about how his music was simply a means to an end? That playing the piano was nothing more than the work needed to be done in order to get someplace he wanted to go, metaphorically speaking?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>Dave<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: maryellenjensen28@hotmail.com<br>To: f_minor@glenngould.org<br>Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2013 23:51:20 +0100<br>Subject: [f_minor] Sartorial Interlude<br><br>
