Glenn Gould ou le Piano de l’esprit - First Part

PART I :

Meet Jean-Yves Clément with two dialogues.

First part with Manuel Brossé, lecturer in musicology at Université Paris – Sorbonne, and a second part with French cellist Henri Demarquette.

A l’occasion des célébrations du 85ème anniversaire de la naissance de Glenn Gould, le Centre culturel canadien reçoit Jean-Yves Clément, auteur de Glenn Gould ou le Piano de l’esprit (éditions Actes Sud, collection Classica, 2016).

On the occasion of the celebrations of the 85th anniversary of the birth of Glenn Gould, the Canadian Cultural Centre welcomes Jean-Yves Clément, author of Glenn Gould ou le Piano de l’esprit (Editions Actes Sud, collection Classica, 2016).

Two evenings to celebrate a legendary performer; who was also a composer, writer, a good communicator and the first musician to give recording a philosophical dimension. Given the planetary appreciation of his performance of the Goldberg Variations, nearly everyone knows Glenn Gould. Over fifty years after leaving the concert stage and over thirty years after his death, Gould, who barely experienced media hysteria, is the best-known classical artist, except Karajan or Callas perhaps.

The two evenings aim to start two different dialogues about the book and the both philosophical and poetic approach to Glenn Gould by Jean-Yves Clément: one with Manuel Brossé, lecturer in musicology at Université Paris – Sorbonne, and the other with the French cellist Henri Demarquette (Part II).

This event is organised in partnership with Editions Actes Sud.

Free admission, subject to availability; reservations required, form below. If booking using e-mail, please specify the evening for which you would like to reserve:  reservation@canada-culture.org. To book Part II using the convenient form, please click here.
