Gould or not, this is one majestic recording of the art. Quite romanticized indeed for Gould as many point out, but I think it's not completely impossible. This recording has clarity, flexibility and virtuosity that makes me think only Gould level pianist could do this.
One of my favourite pieces and this is a majestic version. Fireworks and gentleness with total control. Better even that the version played by Rachmaninov which is also on RUclips.
Interesting comment thread regarding the authenticity of this recording. For me, it doesn’t sound like Gould-save for the repeat of the 2nd half of variation 4, where his signature is apparent. .One obvious omission was the lack of repeat on the first half of variation number 2, which for me throws off the pacing of the whole work.
Sorry glenngould32, but nobody who knows Gould's playing is going to be fooled by this mushy, romanticized fake. Hell, is it even POSSIBLE to use more pedal than this player does?
I'm in no position to say if it's a fake or not but your arguments seems to me weak. Have you listen to attested early live recordings of GG? There is use of pedal and agogic accents.
@@ceemneher4619 Yes, he used agogic accents all the time, and pedal more often than many people realize, since he usually used it so lightly - barely pressing the pedal down at all. But there is NO precedent in his legitimate recordings for this refulgent, romanticized way of playing a baroque composition. This isn't Glenn Gould, and I think he would have found it distasteful.

Who in their right mind would have the balls to perform Georg Friederic Handel’s HARPSICHORD Suites on a massive iron-framed gargantuan modern 88-key Steinway Grand piano with its A tuned to A=440 - with its ‘blurry bass-notes all indistinctly run together in a kind of obscene sonic-soup’ hint : Handel wrote this specific music for the HARPSICHORD tuned to c. A=410 to 420Hz - Gould or not, this kind of ‘modern adaptation for the ‘profanvum vulgvs’ is nothing short of blasphemy against the express tonal-world of Handel (or any composer living or dead) - and Gould’s ‘modern renditions’ of J.S. Bach’s masterful keyboard works on a modern grand with its obscene modern mis-tuning & temperament is unforgivable to any serious music-lover who wishes to pay homage to the great Western Art composers of the past…
If this were Gould, the trills would be sharp enough to slice your skin to ribbons, and they are not. Then again, there is that gratuitous staccato . . . .

Hi trills are certainly excellent but young Gould was not yet as maniac as the professional recorder he would become. I hear the legato more than the staccato though.
Sorry - I like Glenn Gould, but not his interpretation of this one. He (or, based on some of the comments, whoever it is) takes all the musicality of the piece and chews it up and spits it out like a machine gun firing. Other recordings I've heard, while perhaps not playing as rapidly toward the end, still manage to make it sing while still playing quite quickly.

By reading comment section closely, it was cleared that this recording of Gerald Aimontche but one that is sped up. Tricked😂

Disagree. Much more clarity with Rachmaninov.
It's not Gould
Yes, unfortunately it's Gould on an harpsichord: awful!
@@annamcancarini6953I do repeat: it's not Gould
@@annamcancarini6953come fa a dire che questo è un clavicembalo... sta scherzando?
If it's not Gould then who might it be?

is not gould.
Is it really him playing?? I'm not sure..
Listen to the unique ornamentation
Is this real?
That should read 'Harmonious Blacksmith', by the way, but an interesting recording nonetheless.
Compared to Kate Liu, the flying angel, Gould suddenly so heavy and random
Whoever, to my untrained musical ears, he/she can certainly play this instrument.
You should listen to Gaspard de la nuit. Sometimes it's translated as "artful dodger of the night".
It think that the latter part of this is a bit forced to say the least,
👍🌟🔥💛
5:45,
I dont like the ad...
The final scales lack enough clarity to be Gould.
Ridicola interpretazione che può piacere solo a chi difetta di gusto estetico
No way!!

Love it.
harmonious not harmonised...
too fast... but I admire his bach

リズムやフレージングに違和感、ただドライなタッチでルバートたっぷりに弾いたというだけ。暗譜せず初見で弾いた可能性も考えたけどグールドによる演奏ではないんじゃない？唄ってみて不自然な様には弾かない。
Definitely not GG.
