Alfred Brendel: narrator and pianist
Mark Kidel, video director
The 2 DVD-set of legendary pianist and one of the greatest musical thinkers of our age, Alfred Brendel contains 3 lectures, which he illustrates on the piano with musical excerpts from Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Handel, Schubert and more.
On January 5th 2011 Brendel celebrated his 80th birthday.
Presented specifically to be recorded audio-visually, these lectures were held in rooms of the Salzburg Festival.
Thanks to their successful blend of music and theory, they are informative and entertaining not only for experts but also for all lovers of music with an interest in deepening their understanding of the subject.
Brendel is still performing these lectures all over the world.
“What a delight. And the lecture ‘The Light and Shade of Interpretation’ was a revelation – not least of the light and shade of Mr. Brendel.” The Telegraph on Brendel’s lecture at the Wigmore Hall, London, Dec 2010
“A highlight of the Salzburger Festspiele. The artist Alfred Brendel became a real character actor.” Die Welt
“The most profound pianist of our day.” Joachim Kaiser, Süddeutsche Zeitung
