[f_minor] [f minor] More unreleased GG material coming out

[Kristian Johansson]

Hi,


 I for one am glad to have this list for learning about new releases and
new books also for that matter. And there has been a lot of new material
appearing lately! This is a good time to be gould-fanatic and gould-music
collector.

The Well-Tempered Listener alone makes the new Bach-box worth buying for
me. (still unconfirmed if it indeed is on the discs though) For a company
like Sony it would be quite easy to make a search on Google with the
keywords:"sony glenn gould edition" to render a link to a detailed
description of the contents. But they have other ways of promoting the box
apparently... Or?

Regarding the 12 Goldberg-discs I do not have any information on that
whatsoever, but I would be glad if at least a part of them turned out to be
out-takes.
