Brendel plays Beethoven Piano Sonata No.15, Op.28 (2/2)

[@jcalli66]

I think this is the definitive version of the Andante - I can't imagine anyone playing it better..

Funny you should say that - I'm teaching it to myself also :-)

Agree completely. Heard Brendel play it at the Salzburg Festival, and I cannot keep from going back to that mesmerizing performance.

Perfect emotions!

[@captainkirk4761]

Perfect understanding !

B was fond of playing the rondo in selected performances as per Thaler

[@InvaderMixo]

Uh oh, my new favorite Beethoven pianist. I used to only like the first movement. How stupid of me!

私は交響曲よりこっちの田園の方が好きです。

How is this getting a thumbs down??

[@mackiceicukice]

Very simple- tastes are different!

[@hodmchess6133]

Still not the level of his teacher, Edwin Fischer. But my second favorite recording after that. I feel like Brendel and Edwin Fischer are the only pianists who play it very well. Every other great pianist fails.

[@JRneko]

true, they all play it too slow and boring. I like this!

[@hodmchess6133]

JRneko Did you check out Edwin Fischer?

[@JRneko]

i cannot find Edwin Fischer's version of this? :\

[@hodmchess6133]

JRneko Well, all I can say is keep looking. If you love this, you will also love Edwin Fischer and you see where this interpretation comes from.

Listen to Annie Fisher and think again :)
