I could
have entitled this post “ORGASM” however I don’t want to “pass the limit” given
that minors (like
my princess daughter)
come here to read me fairly often.
Therefore I
dedicate this post to my never-ending love in life that – rather surprisingly
for me – is for a man/pianist whom I’ve followed with passion for several
decades (3
or 4) of my life because
he became a piano performer about any and all music composed by J. S. Bach who
kind of weirdly composed his “pianist monumental compositions” without having
ever seen a piano, in fact the instruments available to him in his time was the
organ and the harpsichord. What Glenn Gould did in fact was to re-compose all
of Bach’s music to be played and performed in theater halls a couple of
centuries later.
I’ve always
felt very close not only to the pianist Gould but now even more to the man
Glenn, in fact he died in 1982 due to stroke that made him hemi paretic in the
left side – just like me – and couldn’t play piano anymore.
This story
of what happened to me and to Glenn reminds very much about what had happened
to Beethoven (my
post on 10/28/2012)
who lost his hearing, which for a music composer is at least disastrous, as
much as it’s ridiculous that I seem to have so many similarities with such
eternal personalities.
I believe
not only to own each and every music disk of Glenn’s recordings, but I have a
full folder completely dedicated to all the DVD’s ever made about Glenn.
I did post
about Glenn here 5 years ago and – for those of you who still cannot use the
green search tool here on the right, I put here the direct link to that post
where you’ll find the pertinent links to websites having to do with Glenn.
If you
chose to take the 4 minutes long watching this Youtube above you are not only going
to see Glenn’s fingers on the keyboard of his famous Steinway (CD 318) but a very beautiful (and very HOT) girl in love – like me – with Glenn, the pianist.
Talk about
immortality, Glenn will be about still alive for I can’t guess how many more
centuries, what I like the most however is that the recording of him playing a
Bach’s fugue is in the voyager we sent out to look for other intelligence's and/or
civilizations.
I’m so
envious of her tattoo that I’ve been seriously contemplating the idea to have
an identical one done on my body too; I just haven’t decided yet where in my
body have it should be placed……..I cannot decide where to have it in order to
be able to show it in public, without any commotion, in fact I can think to
very many areas in my body where I’d like to have it done, but too many areas
would create a small scandal if and when
shown……
