Author of fifteen books about philosophy, design and architecture, Mark Kingwell is a philosophy professor at the University of Toronto and a
contributing editor for Harper¹s Magazine. His new book, Glenn Gould (Penguin, 2009), focuses on Canada¹s most renowned classical musician of
the twentieth century, a figure whose ...technical virtuosity and interpretive brilliance were matched by an eccentric lifestyle. A recording artist,
broadcaster, writer, and proponent of electronic media, Gould stopped performing live in 1964 to focus exclusively on recorded performances.
Discussing Gould as a philosopher who lived according to his own contradictory, mischievous and provocative ideas about music, Kingwell
adopts a kaleidoscopic approach to writing his life, offering twenty-one ³takes² a reference to Gould¹s famous twenty-one ³takes² on Bach¹s Goldberg Variations in 1955. Kingwell¹s lecture links to the Candice Breitz exhibition at The Power Plant, which also examines connections between Live and recorded performance, repetition and improvisation.
This event is dedicated to the Toronto Arts Council in honour of their
35th Anniversary.

If you were interviewing Linda Ronstadt, would you be tempted to ask her to sing a few lines from your favourite song? Oh, I don't know, maybe "Silver Threads and Golden Needles"?
