A landmark recording by the legendary Glenn Gould, this LP showcases his brilliant interpretations of Bach’s Italian Concerto in F Major, BWV 971 and the first two Partitas (BWV 825 & BWV 826). Recorded in New York City in 1959, these performances reflect Gould’s signature clarity, precision, and emotional depth. From the lyrical Andante of the Italian Concerto to the spirited Capriccio of Partita No. 2, this is Bach reimagined by one of the 20th century’s greatest pianists.
