Schnabel's Interpretation of Piano Music - Paperback

by Konard Wolff (Author), Konrad Wolff (Author), Alfred Brendel (Photographer)

Artur Schnabel's reputation as a pianist and teacher has grown steadily, and his innovative approach to the pianist's art has attracted increasing interest. This book--originally prepared while its author was studying with Schnabel, and supervised by the master himself--is unique for two reasons: it is the only detailed treatment of Schnabel's "system" as such, and it is the first general survey describing the range of a pianist's interpretive concerns to appear in this century. Formerly titled The Teaching of Artur Schnabel, this second edition includes a new preface by Alfred Brendel.
