Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 29 in B-Flat Major, Op. 106 Hammerklavier 3. Adagio sostenuto
1970 Beethoven Piano Sonata No 29 B♭ major Op 106 Hammerklavier Alfred Brendel
“The nobility of Brendel’s interpretation is beyond any description. It leads into another world entirely.”
“RIP Alfred Brendel (5.1.1931 – 17.6.2025). I have listened to this performance of the immense Hammerklavier Sonata op 106 before and it is just outstanding. Never heard him live, sadly, but love his Beethoven, Schubert, Liszt, Haydn, Brahms, well…just about anything he recorded really. Brendel is partly responsible for my love of Beethoven’s Sonatas, and especially the later ones, and the Concertos too and of course the Diabelli Variations. There’s a Brendel Diabelli performance from Japan in about 1988 on YouTube, and it is mind-blowingly brilliant. And to think that Brendel was mainly self-taught, was not a prodigy and, by his own admission, didn’t have a great memory. After his retirement, he helped out younger pianists making their way. Once walked past him on Hampstead Heath in 1989: those thick-lensed spectacles, the long dark overcoat, suit and tie on underneath, hands behind his back, deep in thought. One of the greats for sure.”
