Glenn Gould: Off the Record 1959

Directed by Roman Kroitor and Wolf Koenig · Documentary, Music, TV Movie · 30 min

Canadian concert pianist Glenn Gould enjoys a respite at his lakeside cottage. It is an aspect of Gould previously known only to the collie pacing beside him through the woods, the fishermen resting their oars to hear his piano, and fellow musicians like Franz Kraemer, with whom Gould talks of composition. (First of two parts.)
