    Sounds like Beethoven on mushrooms.

    He’d been listening to PDQ Bach and ” So you want to make a fugue” ! Interesting but unmemorable

  • Phoebe Linden says:

    Wonderful! Fresh, inventive, exploratory and great fun to hear. Beautiful Glenn Gould and immortal music.

  • Victor KOEHNE says:

    Gould . A real genius

    Lars Vogt used this cadenza in his recording with Rattle
