Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 29 in B-Flat Major, Op. 106 Hammerklavier 3. Adagio sostenuto
Alfred Brendel
Brendel was born on 5 January 1931 and died on 17 June 2025.
Alfred Brendel was a Czech‑born Austrian pianist, writer, and lecturer, widely regarded as one of the great interpreters of the Austro‑German canon, especially Beethoven, Schubert, Mozart, and Liszt. His playing is often described as architectural, lucid, and intellectually rigorous, with a strong emphasis on fidelity to the score rather than overt personal display.
