Ludwig van Beethoven, Wilhelm Kempff, Berlin Philharmonics, Conducted By Ferdinand Leitner ‎– Klavierkonzert Nr. 5 Es-Dur Op. 73

Wilhelm Walter Friedrich Kempff (25 November 1895 – 23 May 1991) was a German pianist and composer. Although his repertoire included Bach, Mozart, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt and Brahms, Kempff was particularly well known for his interpretations of the music of Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert. He recorded the complete collection of their piano sonatas. He is considered to have been one of the chief exponents of the Germanic tradition during the 20th century and one of the greatest pianists of all time.
