Description
On offer here a now Rare and Quite Coveted, Original US Columbia Masterworks Stereo, 3-LP Set of 1972 vintage. First Edition and First Pressings of Glenn Gould's mature, stunning, dancing, and magnificent takes on the Second Book of Bach's magisterial set of Preludes and Fugues in all the keys. On full display here all of Gould's inimitable keyboard interpretive skills and nuances wedded to utterly commanding technique. And here those awesome talents are sampled in one of Gould's truly monumental mature recording exploits. Bach's supreme gifts for contrapuntal keyboard invention and rigorous, ravishing expression have rarely, if ever received more cherished interpretation than Gould's brilliant, spinning, exuberant preludes, and profoundly insightful, ultra-clear fugal takes here. This Original Stereo 3-album set is in Pristine condition after long, careful conservation in the vast vinyl collection of a wealthy and discerning classical connoisseur.
