Summary
The author regards Glenn Gould as an innovative thinker whose ideas about music governed his life. But those ideas were contradictory, mischievous, deliberately provocative. Just as Gould played twenty-one “takes” to record the opening aria in his famed 1955 Goldberg… Variations, Kingwell offers twenty-one takes on Gould’s life, each offering a different interpretation of the man. 2012, c2009.
