Sviatoslav Richter (piano) Filmed at the Barbican Centre, London, 29 March 1989 “This concert is beyond the impertinence of praise, one of the great musical experiences of a lifetime preserved despite Richter's hostility about the concert being filmed. His Mozart is muscular and intense, his Chopin astoundingly stormy or incredibly tender.” BBC Music Magazine, Proms 2008 ***** |
