GG : Trills in Beethoven



Hello everybody, (sorry for bad English ; I'm French speeking)

I've read GG recorded the third piano concerto from Beethoven with Herbert
von Karajan. I presume this performance is now part of Sony's Glenn Gould
Edition. I would be gratefull if somebody might give me a light about it. 

About the 5vth Beethoven's piano concerto ( GG ; Leopold Stokowski). I am
quite surprised by the way GG plays the trills in the last movement. In
fact, he plays them as quarter of quavers - exactly like in Bach or even
Mozart - and giving as result a "Gould-fashioned Beethoven" quite unusual,
which is far from beeing unpleasant. Does anybody have an opinion about it ?

Michel.
