 Sorry to confront you again, but Bach wrote very few pieces, that might be regarded as "songs" (e.g. "sooft ich meine Tobackspfeife" et al.) but there's certainly not a single piano work to which this sloppy "zeitgeist"- designation might be correctly applied. Especially not for the Sinfonia of Partita Nr. 2 or Contrapunctus I from the "art of fugue" (the pieces in question) of which Gould himself speaks as "music of retreat" (from zeitgeist, of course)

On the Two Portraits Glenn Gould video....does anyone
know what Bach song it is that he is playing after the scene when he talks to Franz Kraemer? It's a really slow and beautiful song that I wish to find the music for...I doubt anyone will know it, but I figured I'd ask in case there might be one soul here who does.
