      Did you know that in Mozarts time pianofortes sounded like this and even clearerz brighter?
      Meaning that the the playing you would hear if you travelled back in time would be closer to this than the overly soft dainty romanticized playing of modern pianists in modern pianos? And that the left hand would have sounded clear and loud, because of the pianoforte sound?
      and that Mozart and other pianist of that time used little to no rubato?

      @@ignacioclerici5341 In letters to his father, Mozart wrote how his piano music should be played. It's almost the complete opposite of how Gould plays it. He said the left hand should be background and "flow like oil," and NOT be played as an equal voice to the right hand with too much separation of notes, as Gould does here. Most of Gould's Mozart is downright terrible. He's making fun of music he didn't really like, and trying to expose what he thought was weak about it (i.e. it wasn't contrapuntal music), and he felt Mozart too often resorted to cliches so he could quickly finish a piece or meet a deadline. The third movement here is so god-awful it becomes obvious Gould is trying to show everyone how weak he thinks the left hand is -- he plays it louder than the melody, and it makes the music sound stupid.

      And not 1 of his piano snatas Is less than a great of piece of music, with some masterpieces like this, 14, 8, 18, 11, 6th 3rd mov.
      We're not talking about not a normal composer here, but a man who in just 30 years of work composed literally thousands of pieces, (not easy 3 notes melody loops, verse chorus verse thing, but super intricate ingenious musical structures) consistently, writing more than 100 works that are still revered as some of the highest peaks of western music and admired for their almost unparalled perfection and beauty after 240 years.
      A man who could do it all, compose masterpieces in all genres, symphony, concerto, sonata, sacred, opera and chamber music of any combination. In a few weeks or days, without needing to even change anything. Thats already something beyond every other composer even Bach, who had twice the time of Mozart to write his greatest pieces, and had sons and wives helping him transcribe. I'm not saying he was a better superior compose to Bach or Beethoven, i think they are all equals, but Mozart had the fastest mind a composer ever had. And one of the greatest minds ever. Not just from musicians.
      Those things about conposing countless masterpieces in all genres can only said for Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and Handel.
      I can't fit in my mind the idea that some people actually think Mozart is overrated. The only reasons i can find are complete ignorance, or desperately attention seeking frustratation, or simply that some people talk about things they don't know about, based only on their minimal experience and first shallow impressions without much meaning and seriousness to their words, and probably without realizing it.
      Or out of some delussional stereotypes like "mY gOsH
      YoU kNoW LiKe: emotions didnt exist in the 18th Century and everything was done solely to please the aristocrats bla bla"
      It's like saying Messi is a bad dribbler and Liszt a pianist with poor technique. But no one would say that seriously. They would say it in a childish attention seeking attempt or to provoke certainly (like Gould). I'm not saying thats what you did though.
      I'm a Bad composer, terrible actually, for now at least lol. I'll get better.
      I mean like, the only person who is could really be taken seriously if he critizised Mozart is Bach, and hes dead, and never heard Mozart.
      I have a feeling he would have understood and felt right away how great the music is, and the man who wrote it, specially iif he could hear one masterpiece after the other after the other and so one, like we're so fortunate to do.
      And i don't count Beethoven because Mozart was his idol troughout his whole life and he would never say Mozart was overrated.
      I think theres an anecdote where someone mocked Mozart and he had a huge anger outburst, besides the fact that he quoted Mozarts melodies all over the place.
      Sorry for the long text. I get emotional about Mozart and company.
      PD: Gould was very intelligent, and dispite his exccentricities and passion for provoking, many times admitted the greatness of Mozart.
      And thats evidenced by the fact that he recorded dozens of piano works of Mozart, and only ever did that with Bach, Beethoven and Schoenberg.

      So many people are unaware that most of his genius came from being a left handed brain. For those who don't know, it means a lot more than having a left dominant hand, your whole life experience is different. Hyper sensitivity, anti social, left hand tremendous agility and precision (connection to the brain is much closer than right hand for right hand people). Since we live in an overwhelmingly right handed society, right handed people hate when this is brought up and being left handed is still seen as an anormality in the medical field which shows the level of prejudice from the majority, a form of jealousy.
      And Mozart was left handed as well ! We don't know for sure if Beethoven was left handed but based on a painting where he is compositing at the piano and holding a feather in the left hand, he was.

    Glenn Gould was one of the greatest pianists of his generation, and certainly a leading, albeit controversial interpreter of Bach. Someone of his brilliance and fame is entitled to play this piece as he wishes and deserves an audience. One cannot pass a moral or legal judgement on his playing. I understand the objections to this performance. Looking at the score, including a facsimile of the autograph, it's evident that Gould ignores many of the composers directions, sometimes directly contradicting what is written particularly with articulation. However, it's good to listen to a performance that strongly challenges your own view of how a piece should be played.

      Well said. I must take issue with your description of his Bach interpretations as controversial. If you have ever listened to Tureck or Landowska the similarities are pretty remarkable. And they wrote the book, IMHO, on Bach. However, Gould has been my favorite performer of Bach and many other composers for, lo, these last 60 or so years. In fact, 95% of all the piano music I used to have under my belt were from listening to Glenn recordings. Haven't practiced for 30 years or so. Recently bought an electronic Yamaha piano which I greatly enjoy with the intention of re-learning all my previous accomplishments and haven't even practiced since I bought the goddam thing.

    What an amazing mind Glenn had, with both perfect nuance and unique vision in the tempo and dynamics of any piece of music. I cannot get enough of watching this man revolutionize the pianoforte.
    I regret this isn’t one of those fortunate recordings, in a time that speed consistency was sometimes lacking badly. It casts a layer of harshness across the entire recording. I say fortunate because the flutter spec was not consistent as it is now with clocked digital recording. Some recordings of the same era were clearly, audibly ‘fortunate.

      As a famed conductor once said of Glenn Gould after seeing him perform for the first time “That nut is a genius.” Along with all the other quirks was the special chair he had to use with the legs cut short to allow him to sit lower at the piano. He was definitely one of a kind.

    I attended a Chopin piano competition in Miami decades ago and brought along my Otto Friedrich Gould biography. A very good read for Gould aficionados. There were quite a few internationally know pianists there as judges. I managed to get Harold Schonberg's autograph in the book. I was skeptical that he would sign the book given his review of Gould and Bernsteins interpretation of the Brahms piano concerto. It's worth looking up, the review. Schonberg was a great sport and signed the book for me and even added a measure of music to it. Others I got to sign the book were Anievas, Graffman, Hambro, Lateiner and some other very notable pianists whose names escape me at the time of this post.

    My teacher said Mozart correctly should sound like pearls or pearling effect, and the left hand to be sounding together, this is the first I ever heard completely dead on, like little bells, but the left hand balance snd strength is equal and full with the melody, adds so much fullness and more, it is great to see someone for once not treating Mozart delicate and fragile, more like on par with his concertos, not the recordings of the solo works, great to see, and this is the first time I heard the maestro play this, smile down on us, and show us you were right and the path to beauty.

    People always say "Gould hated Mozart", but you haven't really listened to what Gould said. He really likes Mozart's early works, what bothered him afterwards was this: Mozart became an opera composer and started thinking and writing everything dramatically. He claims that operatic thinking degrades Mozart's music. I don't feel any "hate" for Mozart in this recording. Yes, there are some strange and egoistic tendencies but Gould does some things better than most modern pianists. Have you ever read Mozart's letters? Mozart describes that especially in the slow movements, the left hand gives the pulse/tempo like a conductor, while the right hand moves freely like a vocalist; Mozart wanted many of his piano students to go to the opera. It was necessary for Mozart that Gould deliver the melodies like a singer, establish a dialogue between the melodies, and separate the melodic lines from each other. Gould knows very well how to make the piano sing and imitate the accompanist in the left hand. Many pianists do not know or understand this; That's why they're missing something very important to Mozart.

Dentro de su presunta heterodoxia Glenn es muy respetuoso, más de lo que puede parecer. Lo que sucede es que estamos acostumbrados a escuchar otro tipo de interpretaciones y creemos que esas son las "correctas". He estudiado esta sonata hace muchos años y me parece una maravillosa interpretación.
