Alfred Brendel, one of the greatest pianists of our time, is
renowned for his masterly interpretations of Haydn, Mozart,
Beethoven, Schubert and Liszt, and has been credited with rescuing
from oblivion the piano music of Schubert's last years. Far from
having merely one string to his bow, however, Brendel is also one
of the world's most remarkable writers on music - possessed of the
rare ability to bring the clarity and originality of expression
that characterised his performances to the printed page. The
definitive collection of his award-winning writings and essays,
Music, Sense and Nonsense combines all of his work originally
published in his two classic books, Musical Thoughts and
Afterthoughts and Music Sounded Out, along with significant new
material on a lifetime of recording, performance habits and
reflections on life and art. As well as providing stimulating
reading, this new edition provides a unique insight into the
exceptional mind of one of the outstanding musicians of the
twentieth and twenty-first centuries.Whether discussing Bach or
Beethoven, Schubert or Schoenberg, Brendel's reflections are
illuminating and challenging, a treasure for the specialist and
music lover alike.
