This video gives a good idea of what Gould was like .. note how he sings along with the music. Also his posture is unusual.

My daughter was studying for some exams over the past couple of weeks and she had asked me to give her some JS Bach CDs to have on as background music. Interestingly, I thought, Gould playing the Goldbergs was the one that she not only liked the best but actually ripped onto her iPad! There is some hope yet!!

Both you and yours and me and mine are roughly the same age group so it must be a generational thing....or perhaps it is just that we are both middle aged old fa&ts Seán LOL!!!
