Glenn Gould - Commercials for Musicamera (OFFICIAL)

[@denis700d]

So we could say that Glenn Gould was the original Meme Lord of the 50's and 60's

[@aSymetriqueNess]

YES

[@LuluBodhi]

It's footage like this that makes KZbin completely amazing and worthy of exploring.

[@ephemeraforever4580]

I adore this guy.

[@LuluBodhi]

@@ephemeraforever4580 How can you not? He's amazing.

[@SinanAkkoyun]

Yes!!😍

[@juicedank]

2:51 I REALLY wish there is a full version of the Godfather theme played by him...

[@vaclavmiller8032]

I absolutely adore Glenn's sense of humour!

[@spacevspitch4028]

Can't stop loving this guy. Dearly

[@Kitties_are_pretty]

Holy shit, that German avant garde parody was awesome. Glenn did a good job of mocking the "national characteristics" meme.

[@antoinepetrov]

And be nailed it with "as opposed to French silence, which is ornamental"

[@HowardTse]

*Still better than Hollywood drama actors nowadays.....*

[@JohnBoyDeere]

Great to see Mr. Gould has a generous sense of humor too, bravo! :)

[@elisabethschmidt5858]

Glenn Gould, thank you for this recognition in prescience for Maria (Schneider), I love you both, so much

[@yunjiduan4374]

OMG I Really love him.

[@karpabla]

GG is great to watch in so many aspects! Probably the Glenn Gould's "personality" that we know as a genius eccentric pianist is another prank from this master. 😀

[@francescaemc2]

ah, Glenn!!! che meraviglia

[@francescaemc2]

Grazie

[@norbertsarkozy]

Excellent sense of humor :-)

[@theavodkado]

These are the same characters from the "interview" 'A Glenn Gould Fantasy'!

[@SinanAkkoyun]

i wish i lived in that time just to see this and be hyped for the next episode

[@LyubomirIko]

1:20 - lol he is mocking Karlheinz Stockhausen

[@MrRJS27]

I bet this second one is where Michael Meyer got the idea for Sprockets, which I consider the best SNL concept. It's pretty amazing that Gould, who is so mannered (not well-mannered, just mannered), could imitate other types so pitch-perfectly.

[@chislehurstbat]

Most likely because Gould himself was managing his own brand personality, i.e. the mannerisms. He was way ahead of his time; spookily so.

[@amitbenhur3722]

Best kind of crazy

[@kaleidoscopio5]

My God. I shouldn't be surprised, but I am...: o

[@SVG4ever]

I as a German had to laugh about the joke with the probe and the golden picture frame xD

[@8fledermaus8]

His work is concerned with the resonance of silence, and moreover with german silence, which is of course organic silence, as opposed to french silence, which is ornemental.

[@zweiosterei]

Naturlich

[@КлиоКлио-н7к]

Для меня такой Гульд -- открытие!

[@carrick63]

Fabulously talented and funny man.

[@FF-ch9nr]

If he wasn’t a maestro he would’ve made a pretty good comedian/actor

[@张火星-p6v]

like that godfather theme he played

[@herbertwells8757]

The "brilliantly articulate" Myron Chianti obviously parodies Marlon Brando, and Karlheinz Klopweisser resembles closely Karlheinz Stockhausen, but I'm not quite sure about Sir Nigel Twitt-Thornwaite. I thought first--and immediately--of Adrian Boult.

[@ivanstresec]

Since he's playing Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance on the piano it might be Elgar himself, if not Adrian Boult.

[@WinrichNaujoks]

No, Thomas Beecham.

[@louisvalencia5244]

"Obviously"

[@chislehurstbat]

Elgar - the mustache en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Elgar

[@terrywestbrook-lienert2296]

@@WinrichNaujoks I agree!

[@hhc9359]

Ive never expected Gould with such humor

[@ralphkramden1741]

German silemce is organic. French silence is ornamental. @1:37😊

[@francescaemc2]

grazie

[@johannlee4671]

Perhaps the only time Glenn Gould played Elgar and Nino Rota.

[@arnoldhemsley9317]

He was one funny dude. My favorite.

[@pacoluiz7648]

Myron Chianti looks a lot like Tom Waits haha ;)

[@lordwilksy]

This could be the original jazz club......niiiiiice

[@Sveccha93]

Amazing

[@gloud_genn]

God i love this man😂

[@michaelj.williams5012]

is this just glen gould the whole time//? ha

[@Nordzumu]

Yeah. He was absolutely bonkers. What a great musician.

[@fmoll2509]

Аааа.. 😂.. Восхитительно! ❤ Красавчик Гленн! Марлон Брандо и Джон Траволта нервно курят в сторонке! 🤒🤒

[@moins_vif]

Based

[@erinandrei_violinist]

It is extraordinary that they retrieve these videos, but it would be even more wonderful to translate them into Spanish. Greetings from Mexico!!!!

[@the_Rade]

Hahahaha!

[@clau1479]

Jamás hubiera imaginado esto!!!😱

[@jonathannadeau6218]

Very Monty Pythonesque

[@KSL1972LLC]

Wow. He had such an incredible sense of humor. Would have loved to have seen him become an orchestral conductor...however he just didn't like audiences. Left us way too early.

[@neil7137]

He did conduct some works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6mronebqtx-l8U (video) and did a recording of Wagner's Sigfried Idyll, if i remember. If he didn't leave us so early, I believe he would devote more time to conducting and composing.

[@conalextv]

G.G. is for gg (good god...)

[@Wolfganger]

Brilliant 🤣

[@lestableauxquiparlent-by-fr]

Délicieux !!! 😂😅😂

[@henricuspriaas]

anyone know the last tune he played? I heard it in opening oboe in Janis Joplin's live Summertime

[@CleverMonkeyor]

That´s the theme of the Fugue in C minor from the First book of the Well tempered Clavier.

[@ws7215]

Hes like daniel thrasher

[@eltiogottlieb.4911]

¿Glenn Gould parodiando a Marlon Brando? Esto es como estar en otra dimensión

[@g0aty685]

gould pretty much invented the one person skit

[@ronl7131]

Too funny….

[@cingi]

Lefty conductor :)).

[@wigwagstudios2474]

3:34 EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[@trapezoidspangle934]

Scrolling that was kind of satisfying. I did it 3 or 4 times. You have a lot of spare time on your hands?

[@johnnichols2088]

What did I just watch😂

[@SATOKAGE]

2:52〜　what is this music?

[@ruslans2006]

The main theme from the Godfather

[@SATOKAGE]

⁠thank you for answer from Japan

[@Mild_Mannered_Pete]

What was played at 3:33 ??

[@ChrisWrightOM1]

It's the opening couple of bars of the C minor fugue from the first book of the Well-Tempered Clavier:

[@sergio6357]

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[@traktorkorkort5751]

...

[@willcoh1]

Mike Tyson?

[@ChoskarChulian]

I didn't know he is such a troll If he would have been born in today's generation he would have just watched KZbin videos always and not have done s***

[@normanspurgeon5324]

Proof that he had no sense of humor.

[@kkdesignservices183]

Really, he should have stuck with playing the piano. These are high-schoolish, embarrassing, even painfully bad.

[@KingMinosxxvi]

what the actual F
