Re: GG: CBC Recordings



Elisha,

I have been looking around lately, and like you, have never seen CBC stuff
in the racks. The Goldbergs you speak of I have noted on the CBC web page,
but do not own it.

> (the other was a conductor name Morton Gould-any relations?).

No relation that I've ever heard of, but this composer does have a
presence in the racks, it seems. I'm sure others on the list know all
about him.

Yes, he was already a young star in Canada before his recital at the
Philips in DC and the subsequent recording of the 1955 Goldbergs for CBS.
Am I wrong in saying that he had already been recorded in Canada before
coming to the US?

Your comments on the recording make me want to hear it. List comments
apprecitated!

An aside: another list member and myself have recently been trying to find
the CBS recording (vinyl or CD) called The Glenn Gould Legacy, Volume I,
which is supposed to include both Goldbergs as well as a Tim Page
interview. 

Can anyone please shed any light on whether this is available?

Apologies if this had been mentioned here before (I don't think, or I
would have taken notice).

As ever,
Harold Sinclair
