The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988, are a set of 30 variations for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach.
Glenn Herbert Gould(September 25, 1932 – October 4, 1982)was a Canadian pianist.
He was a Bach specialist, espicially Goldberg Variations.
He gave up concert performances in 1964, dedicating himself to the recording studio for the rest of his career, and performances for television and radio.
He got injured on tailbone and seeing picture above he used that chair for the rest of his life. Maybe because of his father's gift.
He loved steinway like I do.
1 more clip. He is famous for humming during his playing.
