商品簡介
Angilette, who has systematically studied the books written by the legendary pianist Glenn Gould, connects his ideas to those of other existing philosophies of music, music education, and sociological aspects of those disciplines. Juxtaposing historical and philosophical methods, she clarifies and interprets Gould's writings through philosophical analysis. In the process, one sees past the aura of eccentricity that surrounded him into the psychological and moral ideas that led to his decision to abandon live performance, and gains insight into the unique ideas he put forth and carried through in his own artistic life. Reprint of the 1992 edition. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
