Autographs of Alfred Brendel
Alfred Brendel (5 January 1931 – 17 June 2025) was a Czech-born Austrian classical pianist, poet, author, composer and lecturer, based in London. He is noted for his performances of music by Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert, and Franz Liszt. He made three recordings of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas and was the first pianist to record Beethoven's complete works for solo piano.
Brendel was born in Vizmberk, Czechoslovakia (now Loučná nad Desnou, Czech Republic) on 5 January 1931 to a non-musical family. They moved to Zagreb, Yugoslavia (now Croatia) when he was three years old and he began piano lessons there, with Sofija Deželić, at age six. The family later moved to Graz, Austria, following the father who worked as an architectural engineer, businessman, resort hotel manager and cinema director. He studied piano with Ludovica von Kaan at the Graz Conservatory and composition with Artur Michl. Towards the end of World War II, the 14-year-old Brendel was sent back to Yugoslavia to dig trenches.
After the war, Brendel composed music as well as continuing to play the piano, to write and to paint; he never had more formal piano lessons and was largely self-taught after age 16.
