Two pieces of piano by Glenn Gould; interpreted by Vestard Shimkus. This is very different from the Gould everyone knows, the virtuoso interpreter of J.S. Bach. This is more the Glenn Gould that shocked the Russians when after having won them over with his virtuosity and mastery of Bach, tried to also introduce them to the Second Viennese School of Schoemberg, Berg, and Webern. Glenn desisted on this idea after seeing the original reaction by those tradition oriented Russians. Gabe Meruelo.
