This is a provocative account of pianist Glenn Gould's intellectual and musical thought. Gould was a philosopher who incessantly pursued wisdom through his art. If the reader follows Gould's ardent campaign through the metaphorical thicket found in his ideas, a compelling Gouldian model for a philosophy of music unfolds. Gould argues that music is not only a reflection of social dynamics, but could also be a tool for the betterment of society. The original methodology conceived and implemented in this study contributes an important design for subsequent historical/philosophical studies, particularly in music education.
Elizabeth Angliette (Ph.D., New York University) has done musical and academic studies with Nadia Boulanger in France and at Catholic University, Washington, D.C., and the Manhattan School of Music. She has pursued parallel careers as a musician, educator, and researcher.
