Cannot stand that depressing, almost horrid music whilst trying to take in the fabulous biographical details of both DeMaggio and Gould... A major faux pas. Blah.
Can't take the choral music when taking in a documentary. Spoils the moment. Especially juxtiposed against SJG down to earth American intellectual style.
Thanks!
Bravo!
Does anybody know the name of the song? (Voices with orchestra)
BWV 245- It's a Bach piece, also called St. John's Passion

I couldn't possibly disagree more.
I agree, it takes away from the interview. Didn't come to hear opera
I think the juxtaposition is actually quite fitting. Especially since it's Gould himself singing in the choir.
