Glenn Gould plays Die Meistersinger (excerpt)
Prelude from 1st act of Die Meistersinger. Composed by Richard Wagner. Piano transcription by Glenn Gould Recorded in January 1974 Now with Closed Captions! Note: If you want to translate the captions for your local language using the automatic translation, please select "English: Without German Accent" at the "Translate from" field. Why? Because Glenn Gould speaks with German accent on this video, and change some words. For example: instead of "them", he speaks "zem". If you chose the caption track "English: Original" to translate, the automatic translator will get confused and probably many errors will appear.Category: Music

Most people will probably think I'm crazy for saying this but this rendition on piano with Gould playing is more enjoyable than the original for me

It's taken me ...
It's taken me forever to figure this out but the captions for this video are wrong when he says "literal and exact". He doesn't say "inexact" the first time, he says "exact". And when he says "un-inexact" he's not using the word in a double negative sense to actually mean exact, but rather he was correcting himself because "unexact" is not a word.

3:43-3:45 belong to the most notable seconds of musical history. I have been searching for them for a year, listened to Gould's rendition of Bach's D-moll concerto (1052), stuck and did not listen to anything except for Bach's 1052 every day (!). This is the power of monsieur Gould. Finally I find this damn video! Again, 3:43!.. Opera singers will go bankrupt! U jelly mr Pavarotty? MR GOULD, U MAD!

I love lunatics and Glenn was one without any doubt. But where would humanity be today without lunatics? They force us to think things over. To get a different point of view. And do not forget, they are often victims of their way to live and their ambitions. James Robert Fischer was a lunatic as well...

Hahaha I didn't call you idiot, I sayed you wrote idiot commentaries, and your last one is another one. All the best ;)

Right, I've got it. Don't call strangers idiots with bad grammar and spelling.

You don't know ...
You don't know anithing about the collaboration between Gould and Monsaingeon, otherwise you didn't make such idiot commentaries. Monsaingeon was the only one allowed to film GG and the text of their documentaries was prepared before filming. You schut up and listen... ;)
Matteo7419 on 2011-11-11
You ought to know ...
You ought to know that these documentaries were decided in every detail by Monsaingeon and Gould together, so, if he was in this position the reason was that it had been decided by both him and Gould that it was the best position for the scene. Any other commentary doesn't make sense... ;)

INTERESTING ...
INTERESTING CHARACTER HE CREATED FOR HIMSELF - PORTRAYING ON "OUT TO LUNCH" IDIOT, ANNOYINGLY SINGING ALONG, RUINING THE PERFORMANCE- SO WE'D THINK HE IS "SOOOOO" FAR OUT THERE AND UNATTAINABLE TO UNDERSTAND, THAT HE IS THE MOST SUPERIOR OF QUIRKY GENIUS - WHAT AN ACT - HE IS TOO FUNNY - GREAT PLAYER, BUT I ALWAYS WISHED HE WOULD SHUT THE FUCK UP WHEN HE PLAYS.........
