Annie Fischer
Studio recording, 1977-78
Wow, so powerful and beautiful. This performance just grabs me and holds on with every note. She uses a little more pedal than some, but here it works. It ends up sounding liquid and flowing while retaining sufficient clarity and punchiness, but never muddy or overbearing. Fabulous phrasing and tempi and always gorgeous voicing. Utterly thrilling at every turn.
I grew-up listening to Annie Fischer in the '50s. Years later in Vienna (1980-1990), I had the opportunity to hear her last student play this Beethoven Sonata, I turned to my friend at intermission and remarked how similar he was to Annie. A gentleman overheard my remark and introduced himself as a professor of music at the University of Vienna. He then told me that I had been listening to Annie Fischer's last and greatest student. I can only surmise that not only was she a great pianist, but also a great teacher. Her music is indelibly etched into the fabric of my mind and I compare all others to her execution of this piece of music.
Thank you for this fascinating tale! Do you remember the name of that pianist, student of her?

Sorry, many years have passed. I really don't know.
+Dan McCarn Oh well, I expected that answer ;) Now let's rejoice in the art of the divine Annie Fischer.
Spannende Interpretation dieser perfekt komponierten Sonate im inspirierenden Tempo mit perfekt artikuliertem Klang und völlig effektiver Dynamik. Es ist echt glücklich, dass fast alle neuen Aufführungen der Beethovens Klaviersonaten von dieser unverglichlichen Pianistin rechtzeitig aufgenommen wurden. Einfach wunderbar!
All of her technical brilliance adds up to a perfect balance between precision and emotion. Rest in Peace, Madame!
This lady is yet one more addition to my short list of splendid piano players confronting Beethoven with their heads up and their pianos under the most complete control. One of the best renderings of the Waldstein in my memory. Thanks for posting.
I just can't believe the discovery I just made with this lady here. In the time of Cziffra, Horowitz, Gould and et al performers whose main focus was merely to make the ultimate display in technique this woman existed with such knowledge of performace and musical maturity. I was looking for a version of this sonata that could match Barenboim's latest performance and this is definitely the one. I'll definitely listen to the rest of her recordings.
So glad I found this.
Could we say that her rendition is FORMIDABLE? WOW! This is really great and very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing.
You are not allowed to say things on the Internet, sorry.
the best of the best. Alpha and Omega.
WOW!!! Just Fabulous!!
Sometimes I think "how wonderfull", then by another performance I think "how muddled". Definitely genius.
She play it differently but wonderfully. She gives a new, fresh air to this sonate I´ve heard many times played by Schnabel, Rubinstein, Haskil etc.Thanks!
I don't know why but I simply don't like how Annie Fischer (dispite the name Fischer thinking of Edwin of course) plays the "Waldstein"!
My favorites are Solomon (simply best), Gulda, Backhaus, Rubinstein, Zimerman (despite his rather slow tempo) and Brendel! :D
@@MusikPiratCH I don't like the pedal and the tempo changes in the opening, but overall I think it's a great recording. My favorite recording available is Andras Schiff live In Tokyo 2008
I’m always for new interpretations, having heard this piece from more pianists than any other.
My favorites are Pletnev and Horowitz so far.
@@magicmulder I cannot argue against Artur Rubinstein and Rachmaninov and other greats that consider Horowitz the greatest but not for me, I never liked him. It is a very subjective matter.
@@4980cbs And so it should be, there is no "right answer".
I dislike most of the Waldstein interpretations that get lauded a lot (Arrau, Barenboim). And pianists like Zimerman are higher on my list than some super famous names (a pity there is no Waldstein recording of his).
Also I like old Horowitz a lot better than his energetic younger self.
Beautiful rendition !
Thanks
she was one heck of an artist... for sure
Бетховен и исполнитель произведения прекрасны! Благодарю канал,
great pianista bravissima
Think with the Gilels ones, they are among the best renditions of the Beethoven Piano Sonatas. Nowadays we have also Claire Huangci who plays this, and as usual with hers, it's also a top notch account. 👍❤️🤗
thanks
Lejos, la mejor interpretación.
Les grandes interprétations sont celles qui nous laissent le moins de frustration possible. Là, je me sens pousser des ailes, je vole…
I've listened to three performances on CZcams ("Appassionata", "Waldstein", "Hammerklavier") and it's the best performance in my life. And I was fascinated by the sound of Bösendorfer. I have always felt that the sound of Bösendorfer has the image of a fortepiano sound (eg Streicher or Graf), but I reconfirmed it with the performance of three works. Authentic in many ways!

I like Beethoven,very good song.
Not a song.
Annie Fischer does make music with piano and doesn't play piano - if you understand what I mean.
I understand exactly what you mean - she uses the piano to make the sounds, but is trying to go beyond *just* piano playing. This is the sign of a true musician, the instrument is a means to an end, not the end in itself.
Yes we do !❤️🔆
Per il mio gusto, complessivamente, la massima interprete di Beethoven insieme a Vedernikov. Personalmente mi piace più di Schnabel, Backhaus, Arrau, Richter, Gilels
I’ts wonderful song.
Not a song.
@@quaver1239 sure it is!
@@vanhowell3011 how many singers?
@@joelmacinnes2391 Piano strings are vocaI chords if the pianist is good 'nuff. And sureIy you've heard of "songs without words"? AII music evoIves from songs, and is stiII a song (at heart) if it's any good.
A meu modo de ver, uma das duas maiores interpretações da Sonata Waldstein. A outra é de Emil Gilels.
Existe uma outra gravação de Annie Fischer desta sonata pelo selo tcheco SUPRAPHON, talvez até mais perfeita, mesmo sendo mono.

Richter de saias!
Gieseking debe estar al mismo nivel de esta interpretacion.......
Je me demande si Beethoven était conscient de l exces de théâtralisation de ses codas ( quelque soit la période 1795 1805 ou 1825 )!!)
Ah oui, on se le demande, moi, je n’en dors pas…
@@adelphe1414 a partir du moment où on écoute encore Beethoven ( ce qui est contestable , en tant que art du passé ) , pourquoi se priver de l écouter passionnément , ce qui ne veut pas dire dévotement , mais en le laissant entrer , remettre en question , bouleverser votre territoire psychique ?
@@olivierdrouin2701 Pour moi, la musique classique est tellement belle qu’elle est de tous les temps, aujourd’hui et demain. Je la prends telle qu’elle est, j’en écoute tout le temps ; je réagissais juste avec un peu d’ironie et sans moquerie à votre commentaire que je trouve très pointu. Visiblement vous êtes amateur et techniquement connaisseur !😉
the only performance of opening i know of with intensity it should have---e g, compare insipid arrau, argerich, horowitz.
The only pianist that makes the last movement interesting is Josef Hofmann. With other pianists it comes off as repetitive.
What about Martha Argerich?
Schroeder could have done the Waldstein the definitive way Beethoven wanted it done.
Sorry, as much as I love Annie Fischer, this disappointed me when I first heard it. The constant changing tempo in the last mvt, the phrasing a bit " chevalresque " that almost goes in the realm of Bad taste . What's wonderful is that she does the same in Appassionata and the performance is great lol.
I really like what she does with this one, it's different, but I think it's the best version I've heard
そりゃ、こりゃ発売してほしくなかっただろうな。50年代、本当にうまかったから。
She didn't want any of her recordings to be released while she was alive I think
