RE: [F_minor] something Gould would like: Gibbons on piano

["Houpt, Fred" <fred.houpt@rbc.com>]

Hi all.  Just a friendly note to say that although I am a passionate
admirer of Glenn's output, we must periodically remind ourselves that
there are many other great interpreters out there who have made
wonderful recordings that go straight to the heart just like with Glenn.


Have a listen to what Ivo Pogorelich does with Scarlatti....if the hair
on the back of your neck doesn't stand up and you don't get
goosebumps...well then I can't explain it.   One of the most sensational
recordings I've heard in years.  There is much outside of Glenn's orbit
we should explore and we can draw simple comparisons to what Glenn did
with the same piece.

Regards,

Fred Houpt

Another attentive interpreter of Bach on the piano, Andrew Rangell, has
a CD which contains works by Gibbons, as well as one of the other
pre-Bach composers Gould recorded, Sweelinck:

A Bridge To Bach (2006) - Sweelinck, Gibbons, Tomkins, Tisdall, Farnaby,
Froberger (as well as Bach and Beethoven)
