70. Beethoven A La Brendel the public today, alfred brendel, is at them again. Keen Insight. Over the years,brendel has had a lot to say about the sonatasand not only as a pianist. http://www.worldandi.com/public/1993/august/ar02.cfm

Home Page Editorial Current Issues The Arts ... Write to Us Issue Date: AUGUST 1993 Volume: 08 Page: 114 MUSIC Beethoven a la Brendel Whereas others see in Beethoven a titan tormented by deafness and loneliness, Alfred Brendel sees a magnificent inventor whose resourcefulness and humor equal his profundity. THEODORE W. LIBBEY, JR. Theodore W. Libbey, Jr., formerly senior editor of Musical America, is now completing a selective guide to compact discs. Nowhere are Beethoven's gifts as a composer greater, or more apparent, than in his sonatas for the piano. They contain what was from the start his most personal musical expression: The piano was his instrument, and he was constantly pushing its capacitiesparticularly its range and dynamic gradationsto the limit. Even when he could no longer hear the results, he continued to explore the instrument's possibilities, and had it not been for his deafness, he undoubtedly would have remained in later years the virtuoso interpreter of his own works that he was as a young man. While it may seem ironic that Beethoven was both a brilliant improviser and a composer who habitually sketched and re-sketched his ideas before committing them to a work, these two elementsthe spontaneous and the structuredcharacterize all of his music for the piano, and they give his sonatas a strength and vitality unparalleled in the keyboard literature. In his life Beethoven had his share of acquaintancesa handful of patrons and princes, a few loyal supporters, and at least one "immortal beloved." But the closest thing he had to a lifelong friend was the piano. He was already on intimate terms with it when he made his way to Vienna in 1792 to "receive the spirit of Mozart from Haydn's hands," as Count Waldstein put it, and in little time the instrument provided him with an entry into the salons of the Viennese nobility. It served thereafter as his introduction to the concert-going public, and it helped launch his career as a composer. In fact, of Beethoven's first twenty-eight opuses, twenty involved the piano in one way or another.

For those of us who do not regularly have the opportunity to be in Europe, public broadcasters come to the rescue. Thanks to WFMT Fine Arts Network and WNED (I tune in to the Buffalo outlet) an all-Beethoven program from the 2001 Beethoven Festival in Bonn (although this program took place on Cologne’s huge Philharmonie) was broadcast yesterday. Pianist extraordinaire, Alfred Brendel, was the soloist in the G major concerto and easily program’s highlight. I have yet to hear this master in person but will remedy that omission in March when he visits the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra for performances of Mozart’s 25 th Piano Concerto (see below for further information). Anyone within flying/driving distance should be there. At seventy-one, there can’t be too many decades of superlative music-making left from this consummate artist.

78. Www.musikerforum.de : ALFRED BRENDEL http://www.musikerforum.de/archiv/alfred-brendel.htm

ALFRED BRENDEL Bio-/Diskographischer Versuch über Vertrautes und weniger Geläufiges Es war wieder eines der denkwürdigen, nervenaufreibenden und spannungsgeladenen Konzerte in der Philharmonie, mit welchem Alfred Brendel kürzlich geruhte, sein ergriffenes Publikum gleichermaßen zu faszinieren wie zu schockieren: er stellte in seiner ihm eigenen Manier geschickt weniger bekannte Stücke von Chopin den "Meisterwerken" von Debussy, Ravel und Rachmaninow gegenüber ! Unbeschreiblich, wie er demonstrierte, daß das cis-moll Prelude von Rachmaninow eigentlich gar kein Meisterwerk ist sondern lediglich...... Halt ! – werden Sie jetzt sicherlich rufen – das kann doch nicht d e r Alfred Brendel sein, von dem hier die Rede ist, der spielt doch nur Beethoven, Mozart und Schubert, vielleicht auch schon mal Liszt oder so ähnlich ! Ich kann Sie beruhigen: das erwähnte Konzert ist natürlich erfunden, aber es dürfte bei vielen Unglauben und Erstauntheit hervorgerufen haben, daß dieser Pianist tatsächlich mit einem solchen Programm konzertiert haben könnte. Warum aber eigentlich nicht ? Ist Brendel nur auf die erwähnten Komponisten festgelegt oder akzeptiert das Publikum keine anderen Werke, derer er sich bedienen könnte ? Letzteres möchte man fast so sehen, denkt man an den Beginn seiner Karriere zurück: ein relativ unbekannter und junger Pianist, der sich u. a. dem Klavierwerk von Liszt annimmt, diesen und auch noch Sonaten von einem gewissen Schubert im Konzertsaal spielt ? – Unglaublich ! Das war man bisher nur von Artur Schnabel gewohnt, der es wagte, einen reinen Schubert-Abend zu geben und im zweiten Teil die gleichen Sonaten und Stücke wiederholte; aber Schnabel war ja schon alt, das hat man ihm gerne "nachgesehen".

@import "/css/default-b.css"; Home Your account Current issue Archives ... NYR Books The New York Review of Books October 10, 2002 Feature On Mozart: An Interview with Alfred Brendel By Martin Meyer , Translated from the German by Richard Stokes The following is drawn from conversations between the pianist Alfred Brendel and the Swiss writer Martin Meyer, to be published in October. Martin Meyer : You see Mozart to a considerable extent as a composer of form. Could it not be that Mozart's strict sense of form is obscured for the public at large by his wonderful melodies, his so-called "sweetness"? Alfred Brendel MM : Astonishing for such an intelligent composer. AB Don Giovanni MM : When did you yourself discover the dark side of Mozart's genius? Was it clear from the moment you began to devote yourself to Mozart? AB Mozart , there is a tendency toward simplicity or simplification which may sometimes sound tired. The question then arises as to whether there are perhaps weaker works by Mozart, and whether one dares to talk about them. In this respect I am always very cautious, and proceed from the principle that if we have something to criticize in the work of a master, it is our fault rather than his. Nonetheless I'd like to say that some late Mozart, for example the Sarastro music in The Magic Flute , sounds rather anonymous. Mozart clearly did not feel at home in the world of institutionalized virtue.
