Glenn Gould brought his intellectual rigor to all his projects, from Bach to the Romantics. The Intermezzos of Johannes Brahms are intimate character pieces—deeply personal works that blend lyricism with structural sophistication. This 1997 Sony Classical release presents these pieces with clarity and warmth, allowing Gould's interpretative approach to shine through. The piano tone is full and resonant, the phrasing deliberate and musical. Brahms's Intermezzos sit somewhere between formal and confessional, containing real depth beneath their compact form. This recording reveals the complexity in these deceptively simple-sounding pieces, making it an excellent entry point for exploring both composer and performer.
