A comment on Verne Edquist – Glenn Gould’s Piano Man.

Re:Verne Edquist – Glenn Gould’s Piano Man by Gladdon on Tuesday September 08, 2020 @03:50PM (#24412299)
Speaking of Gould, I happen to have a previously unpublished recording of him playing his own composition "Suite for Twelfth Night". This might seem like an odd way of sharing it, but I've been putting it off for a long time because I thought it would be properly published at some point. I now realize it's never going to happen unless I do it myself, so here it goes: https://gofile.io/d/f5ORYZ

If anyone wants to mirror it, that would be nice.

If this is real, an update may be in order:

"Suite for Twelfth Night, for piano (1949; MS lost)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_by_Glenn_...

MS refers to the manuscript, not a recording. Even if this recording were transcribed, that still wouldn't be the original manuscript.

I'm no expert, but if this is fake it's rather well made (including Glenn Gould introducing the piece at the beginning). If it's not published, how did you get it?

I've forwarded this to a archivist who might hopefully be able to confirm it's authenticity. =)

A backup just in case the original gets removed for some reason: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ube7ze92224s7nl/file

You can ask the CBC and/or Sony. They have a better version, but I wouldn't hold my breath since they've never published it despite having it all this time.
