The solitary pianist unleashes the universe of Bach.
A masterpiece of Bach performance combining architectural beauty and lyricism.
This recording was made in the latter years of Gould's career and contains all six of Bach's Partitas, the pinnacle of keyboard music. His clear touch and structural approach breathe new life into Bach's melodies. It is filled with a level of energy and concentration that is hard to believe for a studio recording, and the lyricism that occasionally peeks out into the intellectual tension will move the listener.
