glenn gould on imrpovisation

tomcunn

some interesting observations at minutes 15 to twenty;

also his observation of the how the early music was "possessed of that Infallible tonal homing instinct with which the young Mozart was so generously endowed"

which is what i think makes Django uniquely great; that same homing instinct

also, Gould is eccentrically entertaining always

I once saw a documentary of Glenn Gould, and I could see that he had marked up his Bach score with the names of chords -- e.g. "Dm". Not sure how many other classical pianists, if any, do this!
