On offer here a now Rare and Coveted Columbia Masterworks Portrait Series Enhanced Full Stereo Version (MP 38768) of Glenn Gould's incisive and searching accounts of J.S. Bach's complex, contrapuntal keyboard pieces, the Two and Three Part Inventions. 3-4 Track stereo recordings first made 1963-64 and originally released as Columbia Stereo album (MS 6622) in 1964. Here those great tracks are Dolby 4 enhanced and upgraded for superior stereo sound and clarity. Here performing on piano, Gould excelled in producing insightful and remarkable interpretations of Bach's greatest keyboard masterworks from multiple eras. This Invention effort epitomizes that quest and offers even better sonics revealing Gould's fascination with Bach's own path-breaking inventiveness and amazing, precocious keyboard virtuosity. First Edition and First Pressings of this distinguished Reissue. Disk deadwax mechanically stamped 1A (Side 1) and 1G (Side 2). Jacket is Mint as well with still high gloss faces and seams Intact all round. Not a Cut-Out. Still in Shrink-Wrap. Play Grading shows very quiet disk surfaces and a sharp, clear, singing piano line from the well-miked keyboard. This is a superlative example of Gould's own performing genius in core Bach keyboard masterworks.
