I am a fan of Gould (owning and liking many of his CDs) but occasionally he does disappoint. The Marcello concert is a complete disaster -- dry, emotionless performance as if played by a robot (you literally wouldn't tell the difference from a pre-programmed computer). Gould conveys none of the beauty and sensuality of this music. Reminds me of the terrible thing he has done to Bach's prelude #8 in Clavier I. The CD has generally poor, flat sound.
