    It's a very unique way of storytelling, I really like it. Few artists are not "weird". They don't know much about Gould's original, but they are still completely moved by his music. I hope to find more opportunities to learn more about him and his music in the...

    Mind blowing. There is it on Youku, called "Gould's Thirty-two Elephants", which is much better than this translation. The structure is modeled after one of Gould's most famous performances, the Goldberg Variations consisting of 32 variations. The restaurant is especially fun to listen to the talk, Gould's own recorded shorts and animated shorts. The last chapter after Gould's death should become a classic in the history of biopics. This whole movie...

    The format is interesting, but why does it feel like the focus is on gossip? From the tears and gossip that Gould listened to Bach when he was a child, to the superstition of old age and death at the age of 50, he even took the trouble to list all the medicines that Gould...

Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould quotes

  • [first lines]

    Glenn Gould: [voiceover] My mother tells me that by five years old I had decided definitively to become a concert pianist. I think she had decided some time earlier. The story goes that while I was in the womb she played the piano continuously to give me a head start, and evidently it paid off. My mother was my first teacher, and I've never doubted her methods. After all, she introduced me to Bach.

    Glenn Gould: [voiceover] In the fall of 1977, the US government sent two ships, Voyagers 1 and 2, into space, where they are eventually destined to reach the edge of our galaxy. In the hope that someone, somewhere, would intercept these craft, a variety of messages were placed on board, that would be capable of communicating the existence of an intelligent creature, living on a planet called Earth. Among these was included a short prelude by Johann Sebastian Bach, as performed by Glenn Gould. Voyagers 1 and 2 left our solar system, respectively, in 1987 and 1989.
