The venerable Italian pianist Maurizio Pollini has given his first public recital since collapsing with heart disease at the Salzburg Festival last summer.

Pollini, 81, appeared at Vienna’s Musikverein on Thursday night. He played Schoenberg’s uncompromising six pieces opus 19, Schumann’s C-major Fantasie and a second half of works by Chopin.
