Backhaus, una leggenda!!! E come suona!!! Tecnica sicura e chiarissima, concentrazione totale, sobrietà!!! Altro che i clown che girano adesso (su tutti Lang Lang)

The bad news: you'd be hard-pressed to find a handful out of that 20 million who make music from their hearts the way these old-timers did.

when I heard Backhaus live it was my first recital I went to, for Backhaus it was his last one.... he died one of the following days. The recording of this recital exist. Was done in Ossiach . These Beethoven Concertos I remeber have watched on television. I think they were live recordings too but am not sure.

It makes the oldest feel young again. That swirling mix of melancholia and joy, but at least alive...

This concerto with Backhaus on record - the best version ever! (I own it :-) - with Clemens Kraus and the Wiener Philharmoniker).

The recording was made by Unitel in 1967
