Pianist Glenn Gould, whose renown has only intensified in the years since his death, once again has caught the attention of the world audience in a new 2-CD compilation from Sony Classical entitled Images, which includes a sampling of the Canadian-born pianist's most famous recordings specially packaged to include a 35-page booklet that includes rare photos and Gould memorabilia never before published. Images was released August 20, 1996. The composers represented here include J.S. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, Brahms, Bizet, Wagner, Sibelius, Beethoven, Mozart, Scarlatti, Prokofiev, Haydn, Scriabin, Biggons and Richard Strauss. This compilation was drawn from recordings Gould made for Columbia and CBS Masterworks between 1955 and 1982, the year of his death at the age of 50. The booklet that accompanies Images evokes Gould's mystique in all its imagination and whimsy. Gould's recordings and video productions have been collected in Sony Classical's Glenn Gould Edition, which includes more than 80 titles in audio and video.
