The history of music artists; The case of Alfred Brendel!

source

It was a sad message we received today, on Wednesday 18 June 2025, where we were informed that the musician Alfred Bredel was dead, and he was also interested in poems and in making essays about how things were when we were as we were.

And within Brendels third year of life, the family moved to Yugoslavia, and this earlier country is was deleted in 2003, and we got Serbia and Montenegro instead, and these states were formed and constituted as independent states in 2006. In Yugoslavia, the parents to Alfred Brendel ran a boarding house on the northern Adriatic coast. He went to school in Zagreb, and got from six-year-old piano lessons by Sofia Dezelic, and he also appeared at a children's theatre in Zagreb. After the family settled in Graz in the year 1943, he studied piano and composition at the city's conservatory, and studied piano by Paul Baumgartner, and and above all at Edwin Fischer. He made the fundament for his international career when the received a prize in Ferruccio Busonis piano competition in Bozen.

So, Alfred Brendel was really a name in his national and international environments, and you know music and art, that is about finding what it is, what can be done, and where you and maybe I should be visible in the international societies when we are where we are, and the music of Alfred Brendel is published on the ordinary music platforms as for instance YouTube, YouTube Music, Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music, and we can listen to what we want there and here when we are where we are.

Alfred Brendel was born on 5 January 1931, and he died on 17 June 2025, and he was a Czech-born Austrian classical pianist, poet, author, composer, and lecturer, based in London. He is noted for his performances of music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert and Franz Liszt. And hence, Brendel was in his art as in all kinds of organizations and human behavior open for all alternatives and ways of thinking and feeling and acting, but he had to choose something to be engaged with in the life, and there is just all things or nothing, and hence many of us end up with selecting something that we believe within, and maybe these things also are the visions of our lives. So, was Alfred Brendel really a good pianist through all times and spaces that have been at the earth? Yes, he was, and Alfred Brendel is one of the most prolific recording artists of all time, and for the past thirty years has recorded exclusively for Philips Classics, so there is much honor and usages of the time that is worth using time and space on, and we should appreciate the leaders we are having in the life and our times while we are here and there.

Brendel was best known for his interpretations of the standard classical repertoire. Regarding Mozart, he said many players shied away from the composer — either because they didn't see his work's complexity and found it too easy, or did see the complexity and found it too difficult. And hence, doing things easily and complex are things we are doing many places and spaces and times while we are here, and what we are learning in younger ages, is something we can dwell with and be engaged with in every year of our lives, and we are learning some ideas and lessons early that can be used in later years in the life, and we never updated on all fronts to all times, and therefore the best way to live the life, is to be engaged with selecting something when we are here where we are. And the wildness and boundlessness of nature are infinite to any times, and we determine what to study and while these things are doing something with us or not while we are where we are. And Alfred Brendel was educated by Universitët für Musik und darstellende Kunst in Wien, and we determine ourselves what we want with the life, and what are our established relations and new relations when we are as we are here, and the business life is about relationship management, and there are businesses with some core areas and extension areas, and there are meetings to know how the know, and what should be done with the challenges we are facing in the present and in the future, and the past has been before. And some of the books from Alfred Brendel are Musical Thoughts and Afterthoughts (essays) (1976), Music Sounded Out (1990) and One Finger Too Many (1998), and there are always things to be engaged with in the life, and nobody can choose all things to all times and spaces, and hence we are forced to select something, if we determine to move away and forward in the life. Alfred Brendel made three recordings of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas and was the first pianist to record Beethoven's complete works for solo piano. And there was also more philosophy and good ways of operating when being engaged in his life just as he did his life when being there and here.
