I'm assuming that this is the music theatre actor - am I right? And that his Op 1 is a String Quartet?

I find this on the last.fm site: "Glenn Gould & Juilliard String Quartet... We don’t have a description for this artist yet, care to help?"

Any offers?

Cor!

After that herculean effort I reckon it's a good time to toddle off for a snoozle - back in a while, y'all

Yes, AA can be exhausting. I have exhausted all the Gould references I can find to the string quartet but cannot find any mention of a helper.

the helper was himself a composer

[antongould]

You could add Goossens and Zinman to Coates and Elder

[Anna]

Coates? Would that not be Eric but Albert? (only asking, absolutely no idea on this one) Goossens of course, is sex scandals.

[antongould]

Albert indeed

[Anna]

Albert indeed

I cannot even remember why I said Albert! OK, well that's a clue for others, I have dinner guests arriving. The composer helping Glenn Gould, that also defeated me, this is a tough question!

What's on the menu?

[mercia]

when I put Elder, Coates, Zinman and Goossens into google I get Rochester Philharmonic - all one-time conductors thereof

David Diamond who advised GG on his op. 1 was born in Rochester, NY
JSB played Mr Rochester in Jane Eyre, the musical

didn't know GG was a composer
apparently JSB also appeared in this
