Bach: The Art of the Fugue Customer Reviews
| Average Rating: |  |
| Gould remembered Bach: The Art of the Fugue It's almost an impertinence to review recordings by Glenn Gould, because, for some reason, superlatives are never enough. Bach: The Art of the Fugue But this is a fascinating CD, as are all his recordings, but made more interesting for hearing him play an organ as if it were a piano.

State of Wonder: The Complete Goldberg Variations, 1955 & 1981 CDs (2002) Top Seller
Bach: The Art of the Fugue This album was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Album Notes.
The career of the singular and idiosyncratic pianist Glenn Gould is probably best defined by his two recordings of Bach's Goldberg Variations. The first, his major-label debut recorded in 1955, was Gould's breakthrough. A brashly virtuosic performance, it blew the doors off the established notions of playing Bach and catapulted the pianist into superstardom. The second, recorded shortly before his death in 1982, finds a more deliberate Gould giving a poised, introspective reading of the work that brilliantly articulates its emotional intensity. A STATE OF WONDER offers these legendary recordings in remastered versions along with a third disc of outtakes from the 1955 sessions and Gould's carefully scripted final radio "interview." The side-by-side comparison afforded by this excellent package makes for a fascinating listening experience. The two versions are vastly different but both bear the unmistakable stamp of the iconoclastic pianist's characteristic clarity, precision, and dedication. Each could easily be considered a quintessential performance. The remastering is of particular value to the later recording, rescuing it from the unfavorable sound quality of primitive digital technology. This elegantly produced set is a fitting tribute to a remarkable and individualistic artist. It deserves a place on any music lover's shelf.
