Wonderful performances of Schubert and Beethoven by one of the most highly regarded pianists of the 20th century. The Schubert minatures were recorded at the legendary Sofia concert of 1958 and the sonata and bagatelles are studio recordings. “Richter's sovereign pianism...is at times awe-inspiring. But the harsh sonics exaggerate his fierce commitment, making it aggressive.” BBC Music Magazine, October 2012 **** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
