「如果我屬於某個傳統，那這個傳統便是：偉大的作品會告訴演奏者該做什麼，而不是演奏者自己表示作品應該聽起來如何，又或作曲者該如何作曲」－－布蘭德爾

自1969年加入Philips唱片公司成為專屬音樂家，布蘭德爾的錄音作品廣度遠勝許多鋼琴家，其中包含了獨奏、室內樂與管弦樂，從以巴哈為首的歐洲古典音樂核心到荀白克的現代作品他都勇於挑戰。在這套114張CD的專輯當中，收編他在Philips與DECCA兩家唱片公司的所有錄音，包含了錄音室作品、現場演奏以及廣播錄音。

此為首度發行的布蘭德爾大全集，專輯附錄一本200頁的手冊，包含曲序與作曲者索引，以及許多難得一見的檔案照片，並由布蘭德爾欽點的作家Misha Donat負責撰寫解說。

奧地利籍鋼琴家布蘭德爾被公認是當今樂壇最重要的海頓、莫札特、舒伯特、貝多芬與李斯特鋼琴音樂詮釋者之一。他是第一位錄製貝多芬鋼琴作品全集的鋼琴家，也是重新賦予舒伯特鋼琴奏鳴曲以及荀白克鋼琴協奏曲地位的人。

這位完全靠自學成為鋼琴家的當代大師，17歲即藉自行籌辦的獨奏會向音樂界宣告他的到來。儘管純靠自學，卻能在18歲參加第四屆布梭尼鋼琴大賽拿下第四名，21歲就拿到唱片錄音合約，日後更成為二十世紀唯一連續灌錄三次貝多芬鋼琴奏鳴曲全集的大師。

2008年12月18日於維也納演奏完莫札特第9號鋼琴協奏曲之後，高齡七十七歲的布蘭德爾宣布自此從舞台上隱退。他在2008年推出一系列的告別巡迴演出，而告別的終點，12月18日的音樂會，就選在最愛給傑出音樂家熱烈掌聲、同時也擁有最苛酷品鑑能力的維也納。他說自己在世界舞台馳騁六十年，現在正是畫下句點的時候，「我想在急流時勇退，而不是等到我身體官能開始退化後才離開。」

時代雜誌曾評論布蘭德爾演奏的貝多芬「月光」奏鳴曲：「布蘭德爾可以集鋼琴家、演員於一身，當他彈奏『月光』奏鳴曲的同時，也有能耐在舞台上演出『哈姆雷特』，令所有聽眾的情緒都跟著他走。如何完美呈現作曲家所要求的原音而不標新立異呢？以布蘭德爾來說，他豐富的情感讓我們不只聽到一首熟悉的樂曲，還像聽到一個二十年不曾言語的人突然張口說話一般，充滿新鮮與驚奇。」

布蘭德爾的指尖下內藏的詩意與清新，充分反應他在鋼琴家之外的另一個身分─作家。離開舞台後，投入更多時間在寫作、演講及提拔後進。他的名字將永遠為人所懷念，也永遠在鋼琴音樂錄音史上占有一席之地，這套專輯正是布蘭德爾留給人們最完整而美好的記憶。
