Sviatoslav Richter The Lost Tapes | Beethoven: Sonatas Nos. 18, 27, 28 & 31 - Black Vinyl - Sealed UK 2-LP vinyl record set (Double LP Album)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
First-time release of legendary 1965 Lucerne and Tours recordings, newly restored by Emil Berliner Studios.
For sixty years these recordings, which were made by Deutsche Grammophon at the Tours and Lucerne Festivals in 1965, have slumbered in the Yellow Label's archives. Carefully restored by Emil Berliner Studios, they are being released now for the very first time. Like many other artists, Richter felt that he could play more freely and give better performances in the concert hall rather than in the studio. These tremendous recordings reveal the pianist at the pinnacle of his powers.
