Sviatoslav Richter (March 20, 1915 - August 1, 1997) was hailed as the greatest pianist of the 20th century.
A deep performance that exudes the greatness and richness of Richter's artistic style!
Richter, known as an extreme perfectionist with rare concentration and tension, who has overwhelmed audiences with his extremely refined performances, presents us with a Bach performance that has been honed over the years. He starts playing very naturally, but the performance, inspired by the work itself, gradually gains heat, constructing a rich world of Bach filled with the spiritual beauty that is unique to Richter, who is one with the work. Recorded: November 1991, Neumarkt, March 1991, Roland Sech
