Good-Bye to Alfred Brendel



Brendel Plays Franz Schubert - Piano Sonata D. 960 part 1-1

Brendel's last recital in the United States was held on March 17th.
Brendel's last recital in Chicago was held on March 9th.
He will give his farewell performance in Vienna.

We gathered at CSO on March 9th to give tribute to an astounding career of sixty years at the piano.

Brendel, you are always committed to the elegant expression of every detail in the score.
At the end of concert, I told to my self,
"What can I do to change your mind about retiring?"

Good-Bye, Brendel.

Good-Bye, Brendel.
All of us will miss him, but especially his critics. After all, we won't have Alfred Brendel to kick around anymore.

Ki Hyuk,
Could you post a review of Vivaldi's Griselda from Spinosi and Ensemble Matteus?
I believe your insightful understanding of Vivaldi's opera and vocal will make me a strong advocate of Vivaldi's opera. :-)
