I grew up with Brendel's Beethoven sonatas. Therefore, I can never accept anyone else's interpretation. Alfred Brendel will always be one of my heroes.

the theme at 0 35, it is movement everywhere, beethovens steps back and the movement is still there, I love the way brendel plays it, it is joy and game, playing, nerves are hold by tension, at 2.15 even better, anger somehow...ungeduld

Yeah, monumental interpretation just about sums it up! Filled and played with emotion frustration anger pain etc - incredible piece of music, incredible playing.

I wonder what kind of person "dislikes" this video... This is just another Master Piece from Alfred Brendel.

@Devanatha So did I, recently however I heard Valentina Lisitsa's interpretion of this Presto Agitato and I guess she's influenced by Brendel as well. It sounded so clear to me though she's playing a bit faster. What do you think?

but why doesn't he sit upright?

I also now realize how heavily influenced by this recording I am... Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

Ah, after listening to my recording of this, this sounds so much better.
Mine is filled with static from the laptop speaker, is played on an inferior piano and with obviously lower quality playing. Nonetheless, at least I ~can~ play it. lol...

Crisp, flowwing, expressive.........Perfect

@hellomate639 haha, yeah. i had to wake up early to see him teach a master-class to 3 music students. each student came prepared with a song and, well, Brendel basically showed them how it ought to be played. really cool stuff!

This does sound a lot better on CD rather than stupid 240p.

Yeah, you are a lucky piece of shit haha

Indeed. First cycle. He re-recorded for Philips finishing in 1996. That second cycle's recording of the moonlight is even better.
