GG: article in "Scala"
> Dear Anne and dear f_minor,
> the excerpt published in "Scala" is a summary of the very long
introduction
> by Attila Csampai (German musicologist and journalist) for the picture
> volume "Glenn Gould Photographische Suiten", published by Schirmer Mosel -
> Munich - in 1995.
> I am 99,9% sure, because (curiously enough) I have just finished to
> translate the whole article into Italian, just for my own... pleasure.
> My opinion is that it is very strange that such a controversial article
was
> published as introduction to a book which should have been a tribute to
GG:
> after reading this, you get the impression that GG was a very ill, poor
man
> with the only talent of (sometimes) playing well the piano.
> (Un)fortunately the publisher does not want that whole texts of his books
> are published (or translated) on the Web: it could have been a subject of
> firy discussions for the list, both from a musical and from a human point
of
> view.

> Ciao to all of you,
