I will say goodbye today with Glenn Gould playing Bach's The Art of Fugue.

I remembered the story of my piano teacher about how Glen Gould became famous...
very few listeners gathered at one of his first concerts.
To be more precise, the hall was almost empty.
If my memory serves me correctly, Gould played Bach.
After the first piece was performed, the listeners began to take turns leaving the hall for a short time with only one goal - to quickly call their friends and family so that they could come to the hall where Gould is currently playing as soon as possible.
At the end of the concert, there were no empty seats in the hall.
After this event, it was almost impossible to get tickets to his concerts, as they sold out instantly.
Sounds about right.
