Sviatoslav Richter in Spoleto

Notes & Reviews:

This is the First Release on CD of a legendary live performance previously only available on 2 Turnabout LPs. As always with Richter, his performances inhabit a granite-like lock on the composer's intentions. This particular occasion shows the master covering a wide range of repertoire unified by his trademark breathtaking technique and searingly concentrated spirit.

Notes & Reviews:

Recording information: Spoleto (06/14/1967).
