Hi Will,
Is there a recording of the April 10, 1964 concert Gould gave in Los
Angeles at the Wilshire Ebell?
Not that I have ever heard of.
In addition to the Beethoven Opus 110 and the Hindemith 3th Sonata,
do we know *which* four fugues he played from the Art of the Fugue
that night?
Turns out this was also asked back in 2000, see thread starting at
http://www.glenngould.org/mail/archives/f_minor/msg05135.html,
where the OP searched the LA papers, but no answer was ever found.
As I replied back then, in
http://www.glenngould.org/mail/archives/f_minor/msg05139.html, it's a
reasonable guess that #1, #2, and #4 were three of the four, since he
played those essentially every time he played any AoF pieces. No
guesses on the fourth one.
I could never find the complete-as-possible program listing of Gould
concerts that I hypothesized back then ...
Good luck,
Karl
