Hello All! Pardon the large link,... But listen to this clip of Glenn Gould on the Acoustic Orchestrations...Scriabin ("whom I dearly love",... GG quote from The Alchemist) and Sibelius ( go to YouTube if this link does not work).

In the biography, there was a picture of Stokowski with GG as they were rehearsing for Beethoven's 5th Concerto, and I was really fascinated by his attractiveness.  I went to the library and borrowed two LPs of GG: Beethoven Op. 10 sonatas, and Beethoven Concerto No. 2 and Bach No. 1 with Bernstein (both Columbia Masterworks OOP) and was just blown away by the clarity of his playing.

All over Manhattan, where I happened to be living at the time, Glenn Gould was to be seen leaning back dangerously in that director's chair, dressed in dark blue, a very GG smile on his face, in the window of every single record store (and there were plenty in NYC). Had he only known.
