Who on earth and in their right mind can dislike this? Alfred Brendel is a dedicated expert... only fear of hyperbole stops me from calling him a performance genius. And I deliver his groceries!!!! Seriously!

It's consolatory for me to see this as an amateur pianist because my piano teacher also interrupts me at every single bar sometimes saying "Yes... and no...." :) Many Thx for sharing this. I was lucky to see Alfred Brendel long ago in Dresden giving a public lecture about the way of interpretation piano music at the local musical college - that was also really great!

Thank you for posting this wonderful masterclass. Brendel's in-depth knowledge of Liszt's masterpiece is staggering, and the 2 pianists were of a very high calibre indeed, with great powers of concentration and nerves of steel, to be put through their paces in that way. My understanding and appreciation of the Liszt Sonata has certainly grown immensely, as it must have for the 2 brilliant young pianists, and all those who watched the class. My grateful thanks again.

Mr. Brendel offers a great masterclass here. Much of what he says is arguably beyond real dispute, as it pertains to musical logic: he insists that phrasing be derived from the musical gestures and harmony. He is so at pains to point out that one must really hear the harmonies, which necessitates the proper balancing (or "orchestration") of chords. Naturally, Brendel's conception has a "classical" foundation, and is very different from what might be termed the "Horowitz school." Sometimes, one has the feeling that Brendel is a little suspicious of anything which sounds "improvisatory," and his comments about orchestral discipline are quite revealing. As historical recordings make clear, the modern conception of "good rhythm" simply didn't exist. If we had recordings of Liszt, we would surely be surprised by many things. It is doubtful that Liszt's playing or conducting would meet with Mr. Brendel's entire approval. This is perfectly fine of course; Mr. Brendel is a man of his time, and his conception works now! I would like to observe that his suggestion that one can learn much from the Leo Weiner orchestration seems a tad bizarre: the orchestration sounds like bad Berlioz, and is about as convincing as the absurd orchestration of Beethoven's Op.106. I do however agree with the broader implication that too much wayward rubato serves only to impair comprehension of the musical structure!

Having listened to G.F. Handel’s concerto Grasso Opus 6 no.1HW3319 and bearing in mind as much as I could absorb from this masterclass in its entirety I have together with commentary on the above-mentioned piece by notables of the 18th century grasped more poignantly the concept of characters and colours in classical music. Alfred Brendel is a veritable store house of all matters relevant to music as a whole. Doubtless he will be referenced for many decades to come at the very least.

I have stopped at 30 minutes nine seconds. I’m re-learning classical guitar on my own. many of the nuances in terms of structure and emphasis are something I have toyed with and gained much pleasure when playing a simple piece. I’m now going to apply some of what I have taken in for a while. So I can’t give a full scope appraisal of probably the most important teacher of classical music around at the moment.Already I’m convinced there are gems of divers kinds of Transfer of skills and knowledge. Alfred encourages and corrects at a canter of a pace so that you’re able to apply many corrections quickly and commit them to auto memory recall.

Everything that the great Brendel says to this student, particularly careful phrasing of each bar and sentence, the russian piano school instills in its students from the very young age and thus does give them perfect understanding of how to make piano talk to the listeners.
