  • Description

    Ingrid Haebler (1929-2023) belonged to the same generation of Viennese pianists as Badura-Skoda, Brendel, Gulda and Demus. In 1954, around the time when the recordings on this album took place, she won the ARD competition, which, then as now, guaranteed the successful career which she went on to enjoy. Considerable disagreement, however, has long surrounded her interpretations. For some, she was a model artist on account of her flawless technique and the absolute poise of her music-making; for others, more of a symbol of academic discipline. Yet her recordings were considered good enough to be used in the faked recordings of the pianist Joyce Hatto which, when uncovered, led to one of the greatest and unparalleled scandals in the history of music performance.
