After Glenn's death, Yehudi Menuhin wrote of Glenn " . . . his was an ephemeral presence and only the recorded echoes of his thoughts and passions remain forever to enlighten and inspire us." I am so glad they made this recording.
This is so beautiful ! I am overjoyed to be in Heaven and to listen to these two great masters of their arts playing J.S. Bach. Many Thanks to Glenn Gould and Yehudi Menuhin for this magic moment.
❤marvelous I just came upon this lovely recording of two of the greats…thank you for giving us this recording 😁 now these amazing musicians are timeless 🎹🎻🎼🙏🏽🎻❗️❤
Gould is something out of Central casting! The eccentric long-hair with all the relevant quirks. The mumbling, the facial tics and that stupid, beat up chair. Lol! What a character! The gloves, scrambled eggs, overcoats in July! What a wonderful KOOK! Oh, by the way, one of the greatest musicians the world has ever seen! My absolute hero and idol!
Yes! He was all that and more. But you have to wonder -- with that incessant humming, what if his parents had bought him a a kazoo instead of a piano? Sure, we gained some wonderful piano performances, but did the world lose the first titanic kazoo virtuoso in the bargain?
@@edwilliams9914 Truly, this shifts my perspective on what music could have been. Though please consider this: what if they'd got him a kazoo *in addition* to a piano? Bach would never have been the same!
@@erikpost1381 HAHA! Can you imagine him on stage at the piano (on his irreplaceable fragment of a chair) sitting in stillness, gathering the power he will soon unleash with his fingers poised above the keys... but ALSO with one of those little wire contraptions around his neck that Bob Dylan used to play the harmonica except fixed up with a kazoo!?!?! It would have been priceless if he had done that for a prank at one of his big concerts!

Музыка живёт только тогда, когда её слушают. Пусть кто может делает хоть что нибудь ради приумножения числа слушателей. Одна маленькая ступенька к лучшему не обременять слушание музыки сословными барьерами; делать из слушания музыки классовый признак. Это, если вы знакомы со взглядами Гульда - согласитесь, в духе его служения людям через музыку.
I enjoyed that they played facing one another rather than (when an audience is present) in typical concert formation. It makes for a more direct musical conversation.
It is a revelation from nature. God is an unnecessary assumption, my friend. I know it is tempting to think that something so sublime can't just come from nature, but it does. Evolution has done amazing things, this is one of them.
I am puzzled by some of the comments below. I am a classical pianist, BM, MM in piano performance, studied with great teachers, and this channel is FABULOUS. I am playing Bach sonata in Emajor BWV 1035 for flute and piano (klavier). When I was learning it I listened a lot to Gould's performances of Bach such as this one, to help me find the right touch on the piano! Yes Menuhin has a more "old fashioned" approach to this music than one would hear now due to all the study over the past many decades now of the urtext editions, treatises, performances on original instruments, etc. But I find this performance lovely, and a wonderful duo!! Thank you for this Glenn Gould channel--when this was broadcast on the CBC I was 6 years old in Washington DC, heard lots of Bach as my dad was a composer, choir director, and music librarian, but we did not own a TV! (until a bit later....)
Wow, what a treat! I also saw Menuhim a long time ago, he was so generous he kept playing each encore this was mid 80s. R. I. P. both of them. ❤❤❤💐💐💐🙏🙏🙏
Exzentrische Klavier-Legende trifft auf introviertes Geigengenie. Großartig!. Vielen Dank auch fürs Hochladen! Ich hatte bisher gelaubt, alle relevanten Bach-Aufnahmen von Mister Gould zu kennen. Dies war ein Irrtum, diese Aufnahme kannte ich nicht!
I’m always amused at people who comment that a great musician like Menuhin plays “badly” or doesn’t understand the music, or .... It’s one thing to say you didn’t enjoy the performance, or understand it, but to raise oneself to a level above the musician is just a comment on one’s own smallness. Go ahead and correct the performer if you are a better musician by any other standards than your own misguided hubris. Otherwise, keep your humor to yourself.
When William Kappel played in Australia n 1953 he received bad reviews and vowed never to come back. That was the flight in which he was killed. I wonder what he could have done wrong to displease the critics?
Menuhin surely understood the music, however this performance had some blemishes on intonation and bow control unfortunately, especially in 2nd Mvt., and the interpretation was maybe a bit too romantic-concerto-like for some people. Though he was way better than a lot of violinists anyway:) , and I am confident to tell this sonata is more demanding for the violin than the keyboard
@@alwt1991 haha no it is more difficult for the piano in the fast movements... The piano plays two voices which are very difficult to play musically (articulation, phrasing) without any room for breathing and it does not come easily under the hand. You must add to that the fact that the pianist must have third voice (the violin) in mind...
A little research on baroque performance practice shows that Menuhin does not follow any musical rules that were applied by then. It does not mean that Menuhin is wrong or that his performance is bad. But I personally find good performances where baroque rules are applied much more musical than his performance.
I'll never understand the sad compulsion some people have to find genuinely compelling performances and leave comments like "This is an inept and weak performance," "He's not in the same class as X," "If you want to hear what this music is supposed to sound like, look up Y," or "Can't hold a candle to the immortal Z." 😐
el genio de bach fue fuente de inspiración estoy segurisimo que muchos de estos compases fueron usados como fuente de las mas famosas melodias. se adivinan melodías de canciones del este europeo, de música gitana , de canciones de amor de occidente de musica de peliculas, etc . genial es tambien la seleccion que cada °plagiario° hizo gracias a BACH
Bach had immense faith. God was at the center of his artistic compositional genius. It is impossible to imagine him as an atheist. For instance, no atheist would find in himself the ability to depict the soul shattering, the transcendental feelings of the Christ's Passion in the two incomparable masterpieces that the Matthew and John Passions are. And the Cantatas !!! It's only through Bach's faith that he could deliver so much inspiration and soul lifting every Sunday. Although he had to recycle parts of his existing Cantatas to meet the deadlines at times, the corpus of Bach's Cantatas is peerless and remains unmatched to this day. Given the hardships, the responsibilities of this father of a roughly one dozen children, who became a widower with young kids to support and care for, only a profound, unshakable, mystical faith - which is how biographers have described his beliefs- in God could have sustained him through these hardships while nouridhing his inspiration. That being said about creating such music, there's no need to believe in God in Bach's manner to fully appreciate his music. However, I would surmise that one's belief in God can actually improve the experience of listening to Bach's music... I am an agnostic, raised as a Catholic too, although I had a strong faith in God until I hit 14-15. Having been on both sides of the equation, if you will, I must admit it allows me to enter Bach's music with a perspective I couldn't have had I never had a deep faith previously...
@@raminagrobis6112 Today I turn 50. There're very few things in wich I have faith anymore. My only comfort is that, as I don't remember any time before I was born, the same way my suffering will end after I'm dead. And after the last one that remembered me with love is dead, I'll be not in this world anymore. So let It be.
@@ConsairtinFergus I am of a similar belief, except for an epistemologically important nuance. I cannot adhere to atheism for the simple reason that that is a form of faith. I would imagine you have faced that dilemma at least once during your transition to atheism. I cannot define myself as an atheist for the simple reason that one cannot demonstrate a negative or the absence of an object, a concept or a being. It is philosophically impossible. This has clearly been shown by Kant and countless others. I therefore prefer to consider myself as an agnostic. Realizing that there is no evidence that a being akin to an all-knowing, infinitely potent and loving figure, such as the God of monotheistic religions, I am compelled to renounce to the problem of having to decide that God does not exist, and feel content with the simple notion that the question of God's existence is out of reach for a sentient being. And I seriously challenge the intellectual honesty of any atheist. By what revelation has an atheist been informed that there is no God ? It might just be that God is somewhere and manifests him/itself in a form that's inaccessible to our limited intellect. Or, informed by the foundations of quantum mechanics, God might indeed exist, but to an observer, he/it vanishes due ti the mere act of looking for it/him. Again, I am an agnostic because I realize that I, as a human being, am unable to prove its non-existence. I can only recognize the impossibility for the human mind to be absolutely certain that God does not exist. I can only admit I am in no position to answer with any amount of certainty about the absence of a God. All efforts I am capable of lead me to be unable to prove that God exists or not. I have no evidence there is a God, but no evidence either there is not. Am I clear?
Have you never seen a beutiful sunset, or marvelled at how wonderful the eyes are, that they can see a sunset's beauty? How could the human ear evolve to be able appreciate the compositions of Bach and others, and to appreciate the fine playing by these two men?
when in the very beginning gould interrupts menuhin, as soon as he cuts him off he drops his voice to match menuhin's pitch, so it doesn't feel interrupted. it took me a couple listens to understand the interaction
First movement violin melody is strongly reminding me of the violin solo in Young Frankenstein...I suppose one should beg, borrow, or steal from the best.
Gould is an expert at Bach and to compare the violin playing of Menuhin to Gould's piano playin is like comparing apples and oranges. Nonetheless they are both sweet in their own unique way.
This is a beautiful performance of course. I do wish we could have heard a Bach duet with Gould and Hahn. Then again, that would probably be the musical equivalent of drinking from the fire hose.
I’ve got nothing against either of the artists but the first movement of this piece is pretty hard to listen to for me. They don’t have the nuances and the phrasing and the gentle, seductive rhythm of the Siciliano. Menuhin scrambles around looking for the poetry like he’s looking for a screwdriver in a toolkit.
After Glenn's death, Yehudi Menuhin wrote of Glenn " . . . his was an ephemeral presence and only the recorded echoes of his thoughts and passions remain forever to enlighten and inspire us." I am so glad they made this recording.
