Glen Gould recorded The Goldberg Variations for the second time and last 
time on a Yamaha he found in back of Carnegie Hall at Ostrovsky's. It was a 
much-used one that was not prominently displayed. 

There are five Steinways that could be called his piano. The famous one, 
Concert grand 318, or CD 318 (the D denotes its is part of the stable grand 
piano stable Steinway has for concert artists and like a barn or racing car 
team it has its dedicated technicians to keep them in perfrect order) is in 
the National Library.
