This video takes you to several Toronto locations linked to the life of Glenn Gould - I shot this on my iPhone. I found a lot of the info for this video on 2 websites:
http://aix1.uottawa.ca/~weinberg/tour...
and
http://glenngould.ca/glenn-gould-toro...
I'm not associated with either, rather, just used their info as a reference.
The music playing in the background is from Glenn Gould's recording of the Goldberg Variations.
I'm a former student of classical piano through the Royal Conservatory of Music, Toronto. I also hold both Associate (ATCL) and Licentiate (LTCL) performer's diplomas (piano) from Trinity College, London England. I love baroque music and initially discovered Glenn Gould through his incredible recordings. I enjoyed checking out these places in Toronto while making this video and hope you like it.

I make no claim to be a historian! I'm just trying to share some interesting locations around Toronto. For all I know I might have some facts wrong? feel free to post if I do!
cheers! Jeffery

I work as a folk-pop singer-songwriter-pianist now and tour Canada regularly. If you're interested in peeking at my music, you can go to my site at the above URL.
I recorded my 2012 album 'Vagabond' on Glenn Gould's piano that is in Toronto's CBC Studio 211 in Toronto. It was a real treat.
