A pianist who sadly retired from performing in 2008.
A dignified recording from London in 1976 by Alfred Brendel.
This album features the Italian Concerto, a masterpiece that depicts the principles of the Italian concerto on a two-manual harpsichord, the Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, filled with intense passion and rich fantasy, Busoni's arrangements of the organ chorales Jesus, I call the name of the Lord and Come, Saviour of the Gentiles, and Brendel's elegant renditions of Bach.
