Glenn Gould plays Bach (III/III) The Goldberg Variations

About

The great director, violinist, and writer Bruno Monsaingeon—whose incredible body of work you can discover on medici.tv—brings us a captivating three-part series with the legendary pianist Glenn Gould. Over 15 years after retiring from the concert stage, Gould returns to the repertoire for which he is still so widely known and celebrated today: the keyboard works of Johann Sebastian Bach. Fascinating discussions between the pianist and the documentarian are punctuated by performances given by Gould between 1979 and 1981.
