" Don't be frightened, Mr Gould is here; will appear in a moment" L.Bernstein

 

 "The justification of art is the internal combustion it ignites in the hearts of men and not its shallow, externalized, public manifestations. The purpose of art is not the release of a momentary ejection of adrenaline but is, rather, the gradual, lifelong construction of a state of wonder and serenity."
Glenn Gould (1932-1982)


            

            
                     "[Gould is an] extrordinary artist who is a thinking performer"


 Leonard Bernstein as conductor and Glenn Gould as soloist.
