Gould, Glenn. (1932–1982)

Signed Carnegie Hall Program

Signed program from the legendary pianist, who performed on February 13, 1959 at Carnegie Hall. He has signed on the first page of the program listing (with a surprising typo at the head of the page!), which included pieces from William Byrd's My Ladye Nevells Booke, Bach's Partita no. 6, Schoenberg's Six Piano Pieces op. 19, Beethoven's Sonata op. 110, and Berg's Sonata op. 1. In very fine condition, together with a flyer for the concert and a press clipping of a review by Harold C. Schonberg of the recital, describing Gould as a "Colorful Canadian" and noting: "Mr. Gould is a tremendous platform personality. He easily out-Pachmanns the late Vladimir de. But one walked away from Carnegie Hall with the uneasy notion that all that glistens is not Gould." Program 23 pp., 7.25 x 9.25 inches (18.5 x 24.8 cm). (16782)
