Content introduction
A two-disc set that traces Gould's unique life and musical outlook using the many recordings he left for Sony Classical. DISC 1 consists of works by Bach, and DISC 2 consists of works by composers other than Bach, making this an epoch-making compilation that allows you to explore their unique performances and unique repertoire. Each begins with Gould's narration, ``This is Glenn Gould'' (the introduction to the CBC radio program ``The Idea of the North,'' produced in 1967), and the undulating structure of the songs invites the listener to Gould's diverse performances.
