Gould - Quodlibet: God Save the King & The Star-Spangled Banner

"In the bathtub the other night," Glenn Gould realized that the national anthems of the UK and the US can be played together, and later demonstrated that during one of his studio recording sessions. There is no manuscript or score from Glenn Gould, but we have a transcription by Prof. Givan (see Reference below). In this edition I have taken the liberty of applying more octave doubling for consistency and highlighting the two melodies with different colors.
