Rudolf Buchbinder is one of the legendary performers of our time. The authority of a career spanning more than 60 years is uniquely combined with esprit and spontaneity in his piano playing. Tradition and innovation, faithfulness and freedom, authenticity, and open-mindedness merge in his reading of the great piano literature.
We all have impossible dreams. And one such dream gave rise to this album: I’d so much like to attend a Viennese soirée where all the composers on this recording are assembled: Strauss, Schubert, Chopin, Schumann and Beethoven. These pieces embody the spirit of a good evening get-together: inspiring, good-humoured, effervescent, but always probing the depths. – Rudolf Buchbinder
