This album features recordings from Glenn Gould’s Stockholm concerts in 1958–59, capturing his distinctive interpretations of works by Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, and Berg. Gould’s unique style, marked by his low seating posture and intense involvement in the music, is vividly present here, as is his tendency to hum along with his playing. The collection includes Beethoven's *Piano Sonata in A-flat Major, Op. 110* and *Piano Concerto No. 2*, Mozart's *Piano Concerto in C Minor, K. 491*, Haydn's *Sonata No. 49 in E-flat Major*, and Berg's *Piano Sonata, Op. 1*. These performances reflect Gould’s uncompromising musical vision and his lifelong dedication to redefining piano interpretation.
