GG: 65th birthday at NLC



I just got the monthly booklet of programs at the National Library of
Canada, and they say they are having a 65th birthday tribute for GG this
month.  Here is the blurb:


Tuesday, September 2 to Tuesday, September 30

Special Collections Exhibition Room (to right of main lobby), 9am to
10:30pm daily.

This exhibition contains some 40 documents from the archival holdings of
pianist Glenn Gould (1932-1982), acquired by the NLC in 1983.  A
celebrity in his own country before he was 20, Gould rapidly established
an eviable reputation in the international musical world.  The selected
documents shed light on a man who was and is known worldwide and yet, in
many ways, remains an enigma.
