Interesting thread in the inimitable Glen Gould 👇🏻

Tweet Mar 5, 2023

Some people "on here" enjoy listening to classical music while they work, so I thought I'd do a short thread on a legendary pianist: Glen Gould. (Link to remastered recordings of his renditions of The Goldberg Variations by Bach in final tweet.)
