GG: Chaccone
Hi To all GG addicts,
This is my first posting to this group, as I have been operating
on a 'Read-Only' basis until now, but with great interest.
Some backgound first:
I am a software engineer, 27 yrs old, working in a Video Compression
applications company
and a graduate student of Computing, in Tel Aviv Uni, Israel. I
practice
the piano, with immense pleasure, but will probably be labeled
'amatuer'
for ever...
Discovering Bach's music was an important event in my life (and
Classical music in general...)
which I can trace to 4-5 years ago. Gould appeared rather recently but
I managed to
collect most of his magor recordings, and love his Bach renditions.
My question is this - Did he ever record the famous Chaccone (
transcribed by Busony ),
and if not, why ? Who's else ( I know of Shura Chercaski's) is
recommended ?
It is one of my life's 'goals' to master this piece on the piano...
