    When Glenn Met Tim: A Landmark Conversation Revisited - Part II
    Jul 25 2024
    For your *continued* pleasure: a second, special bonus episode. The response of our audience has been overwhelmingly enthusiastic about the world premiere of the private, recorded conversation between Tim Page and Glenn Gould. They wanted to learn more about this unique audio document, and we’re happy to oblige. In this special program, Tim Page reflects on his spontaneous phone conversation with Glenn, and contrasts it with a later scripted interview for the 1982 Goldberg Variations recording, and recounts personal anecdotes, including a private piano performance by Gould. The episode also highlights Gould's appreciation for in-depth conversations free from clichéd questions and his humour, expressed through his fictitious alter egos, Theodore Slutz, Nigel Twitt-Thornwaite and Karlheinz Klopweisser. The discussion encompasses Gould's enormous influence on restoring the reputations composers like Strauss and Sibelius.

    Glenn Gould - The Private Tapes
    Jun 20 2024
    Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have received one of the legendary nocturnal phone calls from pianist Glenn Gould? For the first time, Gould Standard listeners will have the chance to eavesdrop on such a conversation, albeit one that took place in the daytime. Pulitzer prize winning music critic, Tim Page, is widely recognized as one of America’s leading writers on music and the arts. From an early age, he was fascinated by the music and ideas of the Canadian pianist, Glenn Gould. In October 1980, Gould agreed to a print interview with him to appear in the SoHo News. Tim scheduled a telephone conversation to prepare his article, which he recorded on cassette tapes. Rediscovering the tapes years later, Tim realized what a precious souvenir and historical document he had preserved. During this candid conversation, Gould unabashedly expresses his innermost feelings on topics such as recording vs. live musical performance, the concept of “The Idea of North,” and his perspectives on various composers and their works. The Gould Standard is grateful to Tim Page for letting us share this unprecedented and intimate look into the musical philosophies and eccentricities of one of the most brilliant musical minds of our era, in this world premiere presentation.
