Schnabel's Interpretation of Piano Music

Schnabel's Interpretation of Piano Music

In a testimonial to Konrad Wolff, Schnabel himself expressed his admiration for the author and this book: â€œKonrad Wolff . . . is a remarkable pianist, an excellent theorist, a learned historian, an outstanding teacher, a brilliant thinker and writer. . . . [His book] is a comprehensive elucidation of a complex and subtle problem.
Artur Schnabelâ€™s reputation as a pianist and teacher has grown steadily, and his innovative approach to the pianistâ€™s art has attracted increasing interest. This bookâ€•originally prepared while its author was studying with Schnabel, and supervised by the master himselfâ€•is unique for two reasons: it is the only detailed treatment of Schnabelâ€™s â€œsystemâ€ as such, and it is the first general survey describing the range of a pianistâ€™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.
