Rudolf Buchbinder

With János Starker, he recorded memorable performances of works for cello and piano by Beethoven and Brahms.

[2] He is one of the few pianists to have ever recorded the entire Part II of Vaterländischer Künstlerverein, which consists of 50 variations by 50 different composers on a waltz by Anton Diabelli.

He is a life-long interpreter of Mozart's piano concertos and sonatas, displaying a mastery and sensitivity of these great works, conducting usually from the keyboard.

[5] In 2009, Buchbinder was featured in the award-winning German-Austrian documentary Pianomania, about a Steinway & Sons piano tuner, which was directed by Lilian Franck and Robert Cibis.

The film premiered theatrically in North America, where it was met with positive reviews by The New York Times,[6] as well as in Asia and throughout Europe, and is a part of the Goethe-Institut catalogue.
