You probably already know what the movie's about, but just in case... Here's the plot: "Part I of the series "Glenn Gould Plays Bach" is devoted to Bach's "Art of Fugue." Gould's performance is followed by a lively repartee with Monsaingeon, in which the pianist provides dazzling insights illustrated by music examples. He explains, for example, why he plays some pieces extremely slowly, and bemoans the "musicological overkill" of scholars who insist that Bach's keyboard music should only be played on a harpsichord." .
Glenn Gould Plays Bach
During the late 1970s, Glenn Gould and filmmaker and musician Bruno Monsaingeon planned an extensive series of television films on the music of Bach. Broadcast between 1979 and 1981, the three films in the series deal with important themes that speak to the essence of Bach's music. Each of these films is composed in the form of a dialogue with French filmmaker and violinist Bruno Monsangeon, with the performance of the key piece in each film as the main focus.
