Sviatoslav Richter (piano)About
Sviatoslav Richter tackled repertoire from Bach to Webern, but he is most certainly not held to be a Schnabel, a Backhaus or a Fischer, ie a performer who is identified with the Viennese classical composers. Yet Richter’s Beethoven repertoire includes 22 of the 32 sonatas and several series of variations.
Recently the Richter estate has given the stamp of approval to recordings from France [Praga Digitals]. Now from Italian sources it has begun to authorise some public concert recordings of quality, to document the many-faceted personality that is Richter.
This performance of the 'Hammerklavier' is, without any doubt, epic, taken live from the Royal Festival Hall, 18th June 1976.
