Alfred Brendel - Alfred Brendel Plays Beethoven: Bagatelles & Other Piano Works (2022)

Alfred Brendel is the preeminent thinking pianist, a loner to whom fame came through the power of imaginative integrity, an artist who has achieved - at his best - a divinatory rapport with piano literature from Bach to Schoenberg. Yet by his account, "I did not come from a musical or intellectual family..I have not been a child prodigy. I do not have a photographic memory; neither do I play faster than other people. I am not a good sight-reader."
