Query: Somebody help me understand this.....!

I really don't get it. Except for the Goldberg Variations (which are excellent), every other recording I have heard of Gould's is to say the least shocking, this one included. I cannot believe how disastrous this CD is. There are a few moderately OK pieces, but a by far most of them sound either like a nervous breakdown or some other kind of exercise in contortion. I am sorry, but I just don't understand. Maybe he is purposely trying to make fun of the listener? who knows. Sorry Glenn, only one star.
