With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

Glenn Gould's final recorded performance of the Bach Goldberg variations arranged for string trio. Once the novelty wears off, this appears to be a well played, well considered performance that fails to take wing most of the time (there are exceptions: variations 20 and 21 are beautifully done and almost worth the price of admission alone). Even Maisky is unusually well behaved here, which is a pity.
