Which is old news!! Brendel’s hardly stopped touching the keys. From retirement, mentoring Kit Armstrong, straight into this lecture/masterclass tour exploring music. He’s been doing these extensively already, having done several in the UK already – and his lecture is excellent, his knowledge unbounded, and a very pleasant gentleman. His 3 lectures are available on a fascinating dvd http://www.prestoclassical.co.uk/r/C%2BMajor/703408
