Re: The Other Side of Glenn Gould

[Leah Stanwyck <lstanwyk@RYERSON.CA>]

RCM lecture?  ack - try a 3 hour class on teutonic tones lol!  found Gould's
characterizations at hoot - although as an actor, if looking at it from a
purely acting perspective, he was quite horrible.   it was if you could see
Gould always laughing at his own parody!  i particularly liked his Sir Nigel,
the 'Dean of British Conductors' - it was bizarre but true hehehe..

Hi Matthew,

A polygon, yes, but an irregular or regular polygon? To mathematicians, it makes a difference. Probably an irregular polygon, coloured battleship grey.

 

A regualr polygon.  Isn't that with all sides equal? 

 

Perhaps the "other" side is similar to the flip side to an LP (what's that?), the alter ego of Glenn. Sort of like Teddy Slutz or Marlon Brando. Maybe Glenn's other side is a chain-smoking, beer-drinking listener of jazz and reggae.

 

Awesome.  Like a double life.

 

Probably something more serious/boring at a RCM lecture.
