No other pianist plays Beethoven in such a supremely classic manner and at such a high level”, writes Vienna’s Kurier about Rudolf Buchbinder’s performance of all
five Beethoven piano concertos with the Wiener Philharmoniker. Buchbinder, who has given many cyclical performances of these works all over the world, performs here both as soloist and conductor.
Buchbinder’s widely acclaimed technical perfection is coupled with a knowledge of compositional connections that results from his meticulous study of the original scores of the works he plays. this enables him to recognize the dilemmas hidden in often-played works and to offer new solutions. When this happens in conjunction with a master orchestra, the result is truly memorable, as Vienna’s Die Presse writes.
Following the custom of concert practice in the classical era, Buchbinder directs the orchestra from his seat at the piano, often with only a slight motion of the hand or body. this affords a taut, electrically charged atmosphere, as well as an intimacy and transparence that are particularly well-suited to a filmed performance. the camera has brilliantly succeeded in capturing this unique feeling and in transporting it to the viewing public. “We are lucky that this is being documented [on film]”, writes Die Presse, “since the Viennese musician has reached a new high point in his career”.
