This is faster than many performers but that doesn't make it better, worse, right or wrong. It is simply what it is. For me, Brendel is my favorite performer of Beethoven's piano works, though I also love the interpretations of Egon Petri. Each brings his own insight into the endless depths of Beethoven's inspiration.
Alan Blackwood delightful Beethoven when he was still composing in the Classical style. Nevertheless you can tell it's Beethoven and no other composer. Just wonderful, and so full of joy.
@@timothythorne9464 I thought it was too joyous for Beethoven first time I heard it, but must say yeah besides beethoven you can't really say whou would write this (But I don't have a lot of composer in mind also. Schubert maybe could have, but it's a bit too short for him ^^)
Pierre Tchamitchian it's reminiscent in some respects of Haydn but more harmonically bold than most works by that composer. Even early Beethoven, the ultimate Classicist, has his distinct style
Early works by Schubert are also classically inspired, but Schubert almost always prefers long, lyrical melodic lines in his sonata form movements, rather than the choppy motifs favoured by Beethoven
~Beethoven, Piano sonata No.6, Op.10 No.2~ Dedicated to the Countess Anne Margarete von Browne, written from 1796 to 1798. 0:00 - I Allegro (F major) ,sonata form 5:21 -II Allegretto (f minor) , wiki: A-B-A form, with the return of the first section strongly embellished. It is more reminiscent of Beethoven's Bagatelles than of most of his scherzi. Middle section in D-flat major 7:02. Return to f minor: 9:12 10:12 - III Presto (F major) wiki: The third movement is in sonata form, with an extended fugal development.
Humam Ghassib I may be unusual in this regard, but I actually prefer the early Beethoven over his "heroic" period beginning with Symphony #3. Beethoven the Classicist was Beethoven at his best--so natural, so joyful, yet individual and not at all derivative of Haydn or any other composer. This piece is beautifully interpreted by Brendel. The best performance ever.
Shao Yu Mai Wang Beethoven was a musical innovator, but even in his late period he was fond of fugues and polyphonic expression that hark back to Bach and the Baroque period.
Slightly too fast for my liking. Still superb, though - wonderful technique and expression. There's no doubt that Brendel is a splendid Beethoven interpreter.
I have been an Alfred Brendel fan for many years. Each note is a bit bigger or smaller than the preceeding one; you get power and elegance from a Brendel performance. For him, speed and technic are merely the vehicles - it's having something to say that matters.
J'ai joué ça étant petite, pas avec autant de performance certes, mais je serais en fait incapable de le rejouer aujourd'hui ! Je conseille à tous ceux qui jouent du piano de ne jamais arrêter, car quand on perd par cause de ne plus jouer de l'instrument, on regrette après de ne plus être capable de donner comme avant...
En fait, je confirme qu'on peut réapprendre! 6 mois de travail... mais il faut être patient avec soi-même. Ça prend absolument un professeur qui guide. Je t'invite à reprendre le banc, tu ne le regretteras pas. Bonne chance!
Op. 10,2 is often viewed as only a minor composition amongst the monumental 32 sonatas. (Is it because it seems technially less demanding than others?). Brendel shows this is unjustified. Great early Beethoven & great interpretation by the greatest disciple of Edwin Fischer. PS The 3. mov. isn´t weak but willingly in italian tarantella-stile.
This sonata, like all Beethoven sonatas (op. 49 excepted) is EXTREMELY difficult to play, and few performers ever achieve Brendel's level of expression
HaydnesqHaydnesque, yet uniquely stamped all over 'Beethoven.' Students are so often assigned Op.10 Nos.1 or 3, and this Op. 10 No..2 gem, whether in earlier private lessons, conservatory assignments, or as part of professional recital programming, gets quite overlooked. Go figure.

I was fortunate enough to see Brendel live twice when I was a child. I can still see him performing in my mind's eye.
Incredible how he plays without moving
@Alex Key So... what about you? Can you see him moving even just a bit?
Alex Key he is obviously moving
Dog exactly, people these days... 🙄
It might be a photo. Not sure though.
Duh, it IS a photo
Love how Brendel plays the Byzantine "Our Father" hymn in the Allegretto - he allows Beethoven's notes to breathe wonderfully. Superb.

what about Barenboim?
Early Beethoven, but he already has the bit between his teeth, and the finale is a joy. So is Brendel's playing.

This sonata, like most early Beethoven, is replete with conviviality and hope. What a supergreat composer! What a master pianist!

Stellar mastery bringing out the various voices in the third movement, especially at 13:20 -ish. Bravo.
BRAVISSIMO! The third movement was STUPENDOUS!
He's one of the only pianists who gets the humor in this piece.
Brendel plays beethoven so well!!!!!!!!
Pure bliss, I needed to hear Brendel play Beethoven again to realise how brilliant he is, and also Beethoven.
Second movement is en pointe, the slow section of it intoxicating. Some of my favorite measures of Beethoven.
Great Performance! I've always found the third movement to be quite similar to Bach and Haydn's style...

I don't think it is less demanding than for example no 19, or no 20. also no 10 is probably technically easier to perform

Yesss I love this vr
The dissonance at 7:07 though
Fabulous
nice
It is fun to play. Played this when I was 12 years old.
There is a difference between played and well played. ;)

Has anyone come back to tell you how much they like it up there.
Do you guys know when he recorded this sonata?
1975-05-08 ( 8th of May ) , Wembley Town Hall , London ( Brendel , Beethovens 6th sonata )
Humam Ghassib: I totally agree!
My teacher studied at a conservatory where godowsky was head of piano studies.

Pangerwabang Longkumer Yeah, as if
Barenboim isn't that good
Pangerwabang Longkumer Barenboim plays like him, you got it the wrong way round.

I think this is the 1970's version the 1990's version was live and this does not sound live
( 1975 )
Brendel plays Beethoven and Schubert expertly...
ah so much better than Barenboim finally a good pianist
???
have to move otherwise it,s just robotic playing. bendal is more expressive than Barenboim or Richter.
Bellissima ma preferisco quest'altra interpretazione ruclips.net/video/71MwShFN4H8/видео.html
I had exellent technique. Studied under a master teacher.
Too speed...
When is playing piano not fun.
so go watch TV, I guess..? :D
Eli Kalčeva always fun
sehr schnell ... :/
Excellent!!!!
