Glenn Gould: Every single note released
TobiasNext to the “Complete Original Jacket Collection”, a radio play by Michael Stegemann is diving into the life and times of the pianist. Stegemann has written a respected Glenn Gould-biography and has translated his passion into a three-part production, which will be released both in an English and German language version. Stegemann follows Gould’s life until his Goldberg Variations session in 1955, then deals with that work in depth and analyzes the times which followed the famous 'concert drop-out' in 1964, after which he would never set foot to a stage again and dedicate himself entirely to recording in the studio and preparing for his second career as a conductor. "THE GLENN GOULD TRILOGY" is a production by the German WDR broadcasting agency and probably the most up to date biographical work regarding Glenn Gould at the moment, having been recorded March and June of this year.
Finally, the DVD “Glenn Gould: A Russian Journey” takes one last look at Gould’s visit to the Soviet Untion in 1957 and his thrilled reception there. Several other re-releases are scheduled as well, making September a month of celebration – rather than mourning.
