Article Incorrect About Date of Gould's Last Public Performance
The article inaccurately states that Gould's last public performance was in LA on April 10, 1964. This is not true. I and a friend attended a concert he gave in Fall, 1964 at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I well remember his brilliant, idiosyncratic performance, which included loud humming and a low crouch over the keys. He stroked the keys as though in adoration, gloating over them. Of course he may also have continued to play publicly for some time after the Madison performance. Younggoldchip (talk) 15:50, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for your comment. If you intend to change the article, please make sure that you do so without violating WP:RS and WP:REF. Thank you. Toccata quarta (talk) 16:15, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
I found this schedule note in the Wisconsin State Journal, Sept. 20, 1964, page 50: "On October 25 the music committee will sponsor a lecture-demonstration by the brilliant young Canadian pianist, Glenn Gould. His topic will be, 'Music in the Soviet Union.'" The Wisconsin State Journal for 25 October, 1964, page 23, states: "Today: Glenn Gould lecture-demonstration, 3 p.m., Wisconsin Union Theater." I remember this event as being far more demonstration than lecture! His gift was extraordinary, and the experience of seeing him was something I never forgot.

- Template:Reply to Template:Reply to Hi there, is the last public performance date confirmed? Since currently, the article still lists the date as April 10, 1964 in Los Angeles. --EleniXDD※Talk 12:56, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
