Gould's first performance to receive widespread attention was his 1955 recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations. His speed, dexterity and tone revolutionized the understanding of this piece and it became inextricably linked with Gould for the remainder of his life. His final recording, in 1981, was also of the Goldberg Variations -- a much more studied and reflective interpretation of the work.
Gould was also known for his uncommon views regarding the value of recorded performances vs. live performances (he stopped performing live in 1964), and regarding some canonical composers (particularly Mozart, whom he referred to as a 'mediocre composer'). Later in his life Gould also became known for his work as a radio documentarian with the Canadian Broadcasting Company (a statue of Gould can be found outside the CBC headquarters in Gould's hometown of Toronto).

I may not be the Best of Men,
But I once knew of a Woman who could Love,
One such Soul like Me,
And Now, I am afraid that she has been Lost,
By a Weary, Mad Man, like Me.
So, I sit in this Silent Dark,
Awaiting for that Day in which I can Hark,
And fight after those who Seek My Bride...
And Yet, she would Never take me Back...
Even though, Try as I Might,
I will Never Be Strong enough to Save her...
How Love has Blinded Mine Eyes;
Where Two Roads have Cross Crossed their Ways,
Upon my Gaze sets therein a Sunset...
Warmth... what subtleness in that Warmth sits Thee,
As I sit there, Undeserving of it...
As She, Miraculously, Love Upon Me So...
I am a Blessed Man, to be Approached by Thee,
A Maiden of Warmth though she be Snow,
As those Frosted Tips grace thine Grasses,
You Sat There and Pondered Me...
Intently and Intensely... though I broke your Heart on Accident,
You Came Back To Me...
That Mad Man, Undeserving...
You Came, and Loved Me...
You’re a Beautiful Woman; Kiya, ya know that?

I love the relationship between Hannibal and Will in the series. It's another level, nothing sexual, it's pure and spiritual.
