Glenn Gould and jazz

Thanks to Jost for sending us the articles on Bill Evans. GG seems to have had conflicting opinions on jazz. I recall reading somewhere that he said he could only take jazz in small doses or a little goes a long way. Something like that. He probably would have been really good at improvising.

Now, that sounds intriguing. What was the setting he appeared in?

Michael was on the concert stage with a bass player and a drummer. I don't know a whole lot about jazz, but I was impressed.
