Free Music Review: A feast for the ears!
Hit: 5 Stars

I bought this set about a year ago and can't stop playing it, but with 80 CDs, why would you want to? I came to Glenn Gould's music years ago, like many others, via the first version of the Goldbergs, but this magnificent collection opened my mind to his other marvelous interpretations. The Bach is there, of course, (all of it) and is undoubtedly the foundation of the recordings. But to hear Gould play Mozart, Beethoven, Hetu, Brahms, Sibelius, etc., is a tremendous musical feast. You probably won't like all of his nuances, since he considered the pianist to be co-composer (and certainly played as though that was the case). But the rest of the recordings, including his gorgeously sensitive versions of William Byrd and Orlando Gibbons, his 4 hands Wagner and a smorgasbord of other rare treats will leave the classical music fan breathless. This is a tremendous bargain that the Gould fan will treasure forever. And I'm actually beginning to like Schoenberg...

Glenn Gould: The Complete Original Jacket Collection - Amazon.com Exclusive Poster

The Glenn Gould Complete Jacket Collection" is presented to mark the brilliant pianist's 75th birthday and the 25th anniversary of his death. It is a fascinating, limited edition: all the artist's LP recordings in the "look and feel" of the original vinyl discs on 80 CDs.

The Canadian Glenn Gould (born in Toronto 25 September 1932 - died there 4 October 1982) was without doubt one of the most important pianists of all time. Even today, the idiosyncratic interpretations and the eccentric personality of the "James Dean of the piano" exert a continuing fascination.

In good time to commemorate the artist's birth 75 years ago on 25 September and his death 25 years ago on 4 October 2007, the Sony Classical label is launching a special project in honour of the double anniversary: "The Glenn Gould Complete Jacket Collection" transfers all the artist's recordings for LP on to 78 CDs, from Glenn Gould's legendary 1955 recording of the Goldberg Variations to piano works by Richard Strauss released posthumously on 4 April 1984, and of course, not one of the brilliant artist's legendary Bach recordings is missed out.

Each of the 60 single and 9 double CDs consists of the exact recordings as first issued on vinyl and looks like a miniaturised form of the original disc: the CDs are in cardboard slipcases in the original design, and the CD itself is designed to look like a LP.

Supplemented by two bonus CDs, the limited "Glenn Gould Complete Jacket Collection" comprises 80 CDs mounted in a high-quality display case with a booklet of more than 240 pages. This booklet contains a new, detailed essay by the German Gould specialist Michael Stegemann on Glenn Gould and the LP recording era along with texts and repertoire details to all recordings in the edition, plus a listing and depiction of the records with reissue dates for repertoire that has appeared before.

The bonus CDs include the last great interview that Glenn Gould gave the American journalist Tim Page in 1981 and an essay on Johann Sebastian Bach and the fugue that Gould recorded in 1972 for a bonus LP. They also feature a number of late recordings that never appeared on vinyl: fragments of the "Italian Album" and Wagner's Siegfried Idyll in its orchestral version -- Gould's recording debut as conductor and his last recording of all, made on 8 September 1982 with members of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. Another rarity is Gould's own film music to George Roy Hill's Slaughterhouse Five from 1972.
