R: Re: Gould/Chopin

[madiva@working.it]

 For me is hard to believe that Gould don't like Chopin.
I heard the Chopin's "Piano Sonata" n° 3 performed by Glenn.
The performance impressed me: our Pianist was deeply romantic!
Gould had feeling for the romantics pieces(  I heard also His Brahms's
Intermezzi...).
