It is obviously no coincidence that the first notes (g - g'') and the final ones match those of the Goldberg Variations. The keen listener will discover near the end of the piece (measure 56) the combination of the Glenn Gould theme and the BACH (b flat - a - c - b natural) motif. The <i>Fugue on Glenn Gould</i> had a beautiful first performance in 1990 by Ulrich Leszke in Heeze (the Netherlands). <div class = "tb"> </div> <div class = "duration">Duration of  <i>Fugue on Glenn Gould</i><span class = "f5"> </span>:   3' 16</div> <div class = "tb"> </div> </div>  <div class = "tb"> </div>  <div class = "bijnawit"> <div class = "us_boven">Cover of the original <i>Fugue on Glenn Gould</i> booklet:</div>  <table border = 0 cellspacing = 0 cellpadding = 0 > <tr> <td width = "194"> </td>  <td width = "312" style = "vertical-align: top;"> <span class = "zoom fogg_omslaglarge"><a href="../photos/fogg_omslag.jpg" target = "_blank" onclick = "return false;"><img class = "fogg_omslag" src = "../photos/fogg_omslag.jpg" alt = "fogg_omslag" width = "246" height = "350" ></a></span> <p class = "onder photographer"> </p> </td> <td width = "194" style = "vertical-align: top;"> <div style = "height: 416px"> </div> <p class = "onder photographer"> </p> </td> </tr> </table> </div>  <div class = "tb"> </div>  <div class = "bijnawit"> <div class = "us_boven">Sheet music:</div>  <div> <table border = 0 cellspacing = 0 cellpadding = 0 ><tr> <td width = "219" > </td>  <td width = "196" height = "278" class = "groen01"> <a href = "../pdf/fugue_on_glenn_gould_score.pdf" target = "_blank"> <img src = "../pdf_covers/fugue_on_glenn_gould_c_s.jpg" alt = "fugue_on_glenn_gould_score_pdf" title = "fugue_on_glenn_gould_score_pdf" width = "196" height = "278" align = "left" hspace = 0 vspace = 0 border = 0 > </a></td> </tr> <tr> <td > </td> <td class = "onder scorepart">Score</td> </tr> </table> </div> </div>  <div class = "tb"> </div>  <div class = "bijnawit"> <div class = "us_boven">The whole-length mp3s are for sale here:</div>  <div> <table border = 0 cellspacing = 0 cellpadding = 0 ><tr> <td width = "183"> </td> <td width = "268" class = "blauw01" style = "height: 136px;"> <a href="http://www.legaldownload.net/eltjo" target="_blank"><img src="../images/legal_download.jpg" width = "268" height = "136" alt = "Downloadshop" border="0"></a> </td> <td width = "183"> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div class = "tb"> </div> </div>  <div class = "tb"> </div>  <div class = "bijnawit kleinelettertjes"> <div class = "tbs"> </div> Problems playing the incipits?
