19:40 in my humble opinion, everyone plays differently, no matter what. The piano reveals what is inside, always. I tried to play WTC book 1 c minor prelude, exactly like Glenn Gould, but it will never be Glenn Gould, it will always be me playing Bach. My belief is that it is the same for every individual pianist. The goal should be to play as beautifully as each of us can possibly play. Or as ugly, depending on the piece 😂
