Beethoven 5th Symphony, Glenn Gould performing his transcription for piano

I just finished my first listen to Glenn Gould (piano) performing Beethoven (5th Symphony). I've been listening to the 5th all of my life and Gould for the past 20 years or so. What a wonderful -- and completely unconventional interpretation. Lyrical as Gould felt it; march-step when appropriate. My experience was one of complete delight. I believe that Beethoven would have been astonished.

You just cannot get an orchestra to interpret the way Gould does; they'd get lost.


This is one of the Gould recordings rescued and remastered from the 1968 original. I streamed it from a huge collection of Gould recordings on Amazon Music.

Weary of all the second-rate, brash performances of the 5th by convention-ridden conductors and laconic orchestras? Play this. It's like an entirely new Beethoven adventure.

(1) Then why attach it to a marginally pornograhic video?
(2) Like I said, whatever floats your boat.
(3) No worries though. I’ll stay in my lane in the future.
Women are entitled to wear what, when and how ever they want and no one including you as the right to tell it or them they are porn. Your attitude is inexcusable in the 21st Century we are living now, no matter what floats your brain!!

hey, there. how do you copy spotify to show the artwork, please?
Hey, it's very simply. First, You need to left-click on the three dots next to the heart - save to library, and select the share tab, then left-click copy the link to the album, and paste here right-click, that's all :)
