There is a lot of information about Glen Gould on the Internet. I was never interested in finding out about him because he hummed a lot on the LP record I have of him playing the French Suites by J.S.Bach. However recently I decided to find out more about him. It is interesting that he became very good at a finger technique he learned from a well recognized teacher in Canada. It was a detached sound suited to baroque music. His playing of polyphonic music was admirable. When he was in his mid twenties he had a successful concert tour in Russia.
