The musicologist Michael Stegemann considered Gould's television collaboration with American violinist [[Yehudi Menuhin]] in 1965, in which they played works by Bach, Beethoven and Schoenberg, a success because "Menuhin was ready to embrace the new perspectives opened up by an unorthodox view".<ref name="album-notes Menuhin_p10"/> But Stegemann deemed the 1966 collaboration with soprano [[Elisabeth Schwarzkopf]], recording Strauss's ''Ophelia Lieder'', an "outright fiasco".<ref name="album-notes Menuhin_p10"/> Schwarzkopf believed in "total fidelity" to the score, and objected to the temperature: {{blockquote|The studio was incredibly overheated, which may be good for a pianist but not for a singer: a dry throat is the end as far as singing is concerned. But we persevered nonetheless. It wasn't easy for me. Gould began by improvising something Straussian—we thought he was simply warming up, but no, he continued to play like that throughout the actual recordings, as though Strauss's notes were just a pretext that allowed him to improvise freely.{{sfn|Gould|1992|p=12}}}} Gould recorded Schoenberg, Hindemith, and [[Ernst Krenek]] with numerous vocalists, including [[Donald Gramm]] and [[Ellen Faull]]. He also recorded Bach's [[Six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord, BWV 1014–1019|six sonatas for violin and harpsichord]] ([[BWV]] 1014–1019) with [[Jaime Laredo]], and the [[Sonatas for viola da gamba and harpsichord (Bach)|three sonatas for viola da gamba and keyboard]] with [[Leonard Rose]]. Claude Rains narrated their recording of Strauss's melodrama ''Enoch Arden''. Gould also collaborated with members of the New York Philharmonic, the flutist [[Julius Baker]] and the violinist [[Rafael Druian]], in a recording of Bach's [[Brandenburg Concerto]] No. 4,<ref>Kazdin, Andrew (1989).
