Schumann’s contribution to romantic piano repertoire has no parallel. Richter put all lyricism and vibration the pieces claim for. Outstanding! Richter is probably the most intimate performer of this genius of German romanticism.
In 1968 I encountered Richter in the Hellbrunn Allee in Salzburg, and I asked him why he omitted the two pieces from the Fantasiestücke. He answered "Weil Sie gefallen mir nichts!!" He said that he might play them is a "bis," but otherwise - he made a face !
Рихтер, конечно, поражает. При такой яркой индивидуальности, мощнейшем темпераменте, грандиозных технических возможностях - АСКЕТИЧЕСКАЯ ОБЪЕКТИВНОСТЬ, ни следа кокетства, выпендрёжа, слащавости. Не всегда сладко - всегда убедительно, всегда правда.
Любимый Шуман исполняет любимый Рихтер. Такое сочетание автора произведения и автора исполнительской трактовки дает превосходные результаты для восхищения красотой мироздания в музыке.
Ed ecco il suo suono magnifico , che rende emozionante qualsiasi cosa tocchi. Tocco , tecnica, interpretazione , tutto si fonde x esprimere un mondo fluido, lirico, drammatico ., ricco di chiaroscuri ...qual è quello di Schumann. Richter e pochi altri esprimono al massimo grado complessità e candore, divertimento e disperazione.
Ascolta anche il grandissimo Wilhelm Backhaus (1884 - luglio 1969): des Abends fu l'ultimo pezzo da lui suonato in pubblico (come bis), nel giugno 1969.
Richer makes lots of little slips, doesn't everyone? But in the glorious scheme of things, it doesn't matter in the slightest, you listen to the wonderful story he's telling you and thank God you have your hearing. cathy
Technical ability con bravura, of course and a remarkable cantabile line.....ah, but the ability to bend the notes and to apply rubato...and to phrase-link! Perhaps only Rubinstein was Richter's equal in these last three. Thanks to FirstPublicChannel for this marvel.
For me Rubinstein is too reserved for Schumann, though. I love Rubinstein's interpretation of Chopin, but Schumann requires the kind of emotional endurance that Richter among few can drum up.
Magnificent. I've heard no better recording of this. Certainly preferable over Novaes (as good as her's is). The only other recording I've heard that as good as this by Richter is the great recording by Yves Nat.
I don't know if he recorded them, but I suspect not. He didn't play certain Chopin preludes, even when programming the set. He didn't play the Waldstein sonata, because he felt that he had nothing to add to what others had already done with it.
Marvelous performance and depth that Richter brings to so much, but hear also Alfred Brendel's masterclass of this piece in which Brendel also plays and is masterful in his interpretative insights and execution. It is at: th-cam.com/video/qd4cxqFfd1I/w-d-xo.html This is great, great music and it is wonderful to be able to hear, study and learn from such musical giants.

Да, я не понимаю тех, кто говорит, что Рихтера скучно слушать

Wonderful performances. Richters expression and his emotional range are sublime. Yakov Flier is also great at these pieces.

superb...
Listen to this compared to Brendel’s performance, elsewhere on TH-cam - this is another world
Even the Great Richter don't plays correctly the 21st measure.There is a cantabile Syncopated very beautiful.

In which piece? Could you indicate the time frame?
C'est vraiment irrespectueux de mettre des pubs entre les pièces, surtout lorsque c'est un immense artiste!

MICHELANGELI said that RICHTER is above All...
He didn't...

sviatoslav richter
You could very well be right. I may have misremembered from the documentary "Enigma."
Looks like is speaking to Pierre Boulez (?)
Yes!
@ FirstPublicChannel:
You wrote a . instead of a : so the piece no. VIII. cannot be clicked.
and Grillen???? Nooo my good my favourite !!!

I don't know, but his hand was supposed to stretch a 13th (one smaller than Rachmaninoff!)
Ah hA! That explains why retired basketball players often become concert pianists. 🏀 > 🎹
Those missing pieces...do they exist in another Richter's recording or he didn't record them at all?
arabesque1810 no
I know he disliked grillen. Everyone has different musical taste.
This is an awfully manipulated recording..I have this on the original Melodiya recording... this is sacrilege ....
Could you give link for it?
