Feels like nothing more can be said or done after listening to this. Sheer perfection.

im curious who the page turner is. seems to know richter

[belshep]

@randomprimate Lyudmila Berlinskaya, the cello Valentin Berlinsky's daughter. Of course she knew Richter very well

Richter and the Borodin Quartet : thrre is nothing better in this rertoire !

A lot of thanks

[SatchmoSings]

The too-close mic'ing on the piano has set off "The Proximity Effect" and the recording engineer didn't compensate for it.

Borodin quartet and Richter are just the best for this repertoire. And what a repertoire is this ;) amazing piece and legendary players

[2Doppel8]

This is perfect! Ther´s nothing else to say. The Soundquality should be better.

[belshep]

@2Doppel8 It might be better if it was released as a commercial dvd or something. Or if I were a millionare to have bought it from the TV&Radio Archieves at the commercial price ~ 50$ per minute for quality reasons. But not necessarely

[2Doppel8]

@belshep That´s a Point.

Finalmente! 5 geni al servizio del grande Shostakovich. Interpretazione del secolo!

[SviatoslavRichterSpa]
