Alfred Brendel (b. 1931) was born in Moravia (now part of the Czech Republic), and has lived in London since 1971. He is best known as one of the world's most widely respected pianists and classical recording artists. Writing has long been a violon d'Ingres for Brendel and he has published a number of volumes including One Finger Too Many and Cursing Bagels.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. EXTREMELY rare signed first printing of this handsome edition of the great pianists poetry. An unknown number of these books were signed at the Phaidon London office, and here is one of them. An irritating and tiny mark on the jacket is the only fault. This may be a printing fault; it is a smudged ink line, about three mm in length. But this copy is otherwise perfect, and was supplied direct from the publisher. Jacket is now protected. The very scarce signature is elegantly written in black ink on the title page. EXTREMELY RARE SIGNATURE. Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng.
