Where did you get this DVD? I can't find it in my usual internet
searches in Europe or Japan.

Hello!

I have recently bought a DVD by Bruno Monsaingeon "Glenn Gould. The
Alchemist" (EMI classics DVD DVB 4901279).  Has anybody already got it?
The musical program is very exciting (Schönberg, Gibbons, Byrd, Webern,
Berg, and Bach), but also interesting are the interviews by
Monsaingeon ... and the booklet of notes.   And then ... an eerye
bonus: a _silent_ black and white movie of Glenn playing.   It is
paradoxically extremely musical to look at his hands dancing silently on
the keyboard, in places in slow motion; you can hear the notes in your
head, as if coming from very far.  A magical experience, in fact. These
films started the interest for Gould in France, and, although some
fragments have been seen elsewhere, I never saw them before in
full.    Many thanks to EMI (but wasn't Sony the owner of the rights
on everything he ever recorded after the Fifties?).

I wish you all some good listening and even better watching!
