Wonderful, many thanks for sharing this gem.

[@nadiadesimone8645]

Politically and ideologically Backhaus is very far from me but technically and musically he is perfect. Thank you so much

[@kakoou3362]

what was his ideologies?

[@p.a.cthegoldenageofmusic3279]

Aha She Is materialistic or americanist. Backhaus with Arrau Ney and few others are the Truth in Beethoven!Of course they come from the right, in any sense ,side:Backhaus filo German, Arrau Chile and German adopted,Ney true German Nazionalsocialist till the end of her life!

[@andreasimonedenicolo]

Fantastico! Che suono!

[@pieroalessandrocassano8287]

Eh sì ...Tutte da studiare le elasticità ritmiche,l analisi dei temi A confronto,quando arpeggia e quando no.Come dice Toscanini ogni battuta ha il tempo che si merita.La efficienza tecnica senza mai avere il sentore di macchina grazie al suono cantante e l'eroicità dell'appoggio

[@pianopera]

It's interesting to hear with how many tempo fluctuations he's actually playing.

That s the right way to play Beethoven!"A metronomical pedantic playing made him furious"Karl Czerny

[@francescofontanazzasurgeon]

@@p.a.cthegoldenageofmusic3279 Me ne sono accorto anch'io e lo trovo molto interessante. Probabilmente è così che dev'essere suonato. Purtroppo la cosiddetta musica classica è stata rovinata dai cosiddetti conservatori di musica dove si insegna solo la pedanteria e io l'ho provato sulla mia pelle.

@@francescofontanazzasurgeon Non si preoccupi il mondo del metronomo e degli accordi placcati nato con la fine della seconda guerra mondiale è morto col 1989 .

That sounds like Cortot announcing the program (compare any audio of Cortot speaking). Is that possible?
