Beethoven / Wilhelm Kempff, 1964: Bagatelles, Op. 126 - Complete DG Recording

In this 1964 recording, the late German pianist Wilhelm Kempff (1895-1991) performs the six Bagatelles, Op. 126, by Ludwig van Beethoven. I created this video from the LP depicted above, “Beethoven: Bagatelles - Wilhelm Kempff, Piano,“ issued in 1965 by Deutsche Grammophon, serial number 138934. So that there is no question in the mind of the listener, I rely principally on images of the LP label (3:43) and LP jacket (4:55) in order to document the authenticity of historically important recordings
