5.0 out of 5 stars simply the funniest, September 24, 2003
By Skyburial (N-1400 Ski, Ski Norway) - See all my reviews
My perfect antidote to any form of depression: The irreverent side of Glenn Gould, deconstructing the hallowed Appassionata sonata, showing that the emperor, in this case, was without clothes.
The whole record is perceptive, revealing new insights (and opinions) on Beethoven`s music. But it is not a representative Beethoven piano recording, and should be supplemented with one of the many excellent "correct" recordings that exist - Alfred Brendel is but one example.
This is for those who appreciate Gould`s unique and always fresh way of making music come alive and speak to you. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars An original approach!, June 17, 2005
By Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Shakespeare and Beethoven are two powerful examples that show that no matter you face his work, even how terrible you play his message they resist as a big tree any intention, they simply are far beyond the present circumstance, they talk to the best of ourselves and the power of synthesis and strong conviction make them indestructible.
Glenn Gould's approach is an irreverent reading, trying to diminish the epic in some Sonatas and emphasizing the grief and passion. That's why the whole sum can produce great positive surprises but also terrible disappointments. For instance I love his version of the Op. 49, The Adieux, The Funeral March, Second, third and Seventh Sonatas, and even the Moonlight, the Tempest and the op. 110, because somehow this last Sonata reflects more than any other else the intimate universe of Mr.Gould.
I mean, do not expect glorious results from the Waldstein or Hamerklavier. I know Gould to guess he could do a best performance but simply didn ` t because his intention was clearly to refuse the argument lines and the historicity. I agree totally with him in what concerns with the absence of any Romantic approach with Beethoven, and in this sense he triumphs in several works due the true Beethovenian dissonances must sound hard, bitter and wild.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Musician, April 18, 2003
By Andrew Linton (Cleveland,TN) - See all my reviews
Every Gould recording is an adventure and should be given at least one listen or more. The recording sound and playing style is so unique as are all of Gould's recordings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gould swings between arbitrary and inspired
Although the first word that comes to mind with Glenn Gould's name is Bach, he didn't bring baroque sensibilities to romatnic composers. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars He's trying to sound bad.
This CD is absolutely miserable. I recommend that if you buy Gould, only buy Bach. I'll refer just to the first piece, Sonata Op. 2 No. 1 which could not have been worse. Read more
