This unique film in four parts presents Glenn Gould both in performance and interviews with Bruno Monsaingeon. Filmed in 1974, it gives us a rare opportunity to see Gould performing some ten years after his retreat from the concert platform.
THE TROUT
Franz Schubert
The award-winning Christopher Nupen film, The Trout, is an exuberant explosion of youthful enjoyment in music: first from Franz Schubert himself, who wrote his famous Trout Quintet when he was 22 years old, and then from five young artists of the highest rank - Daniel Barenboim, Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman, Jacqueline du Pré, and Zubin Mehta. The pick up the spirit of Schubert's music magnificently, both in preparation and rehearsal, and in their 1969 performance of the work, which has become one of the most remembered ever given.
