  • breathtaking

  • Somehow, the melody on 3:47 reminds me a lot the Titan Symphony from Mahler!

  • ohhhh ouiiiiiiii!

  • I have listen, and i think the player is not Sviatoslav RIchter. Is not his sound and style.

  • @LisztBusoni

    The player IS Sviatoslav Richter... even if you don't recognize his sound and style! ;)

  • Beautiful. Is this the Hungary, Florence or Lugano performance?

  • @chazinko

    No, it's earlier recording from Moscow.

  • The sound is very good for 1950s (?) - you did a fine transfer. Thank you!

  • ça c'est génial

  • this is perhaps the most beautiful piece i have ever heard, what with the arpeggiated chords and the emotion throughout it

  • it is sad that richter had so many problems when getting older. His cancelling concerts in the big western cities of europe were legend... I could hear one of his last concert in Paris, was great even if it was no more the virtuous richter with a virtuous program... His conception for any musicpiece was always great. No one did so much different music in his life....

  • This is what makes Richter such a fascinating pianist. His Appassionata could be the most aggressive and yet here, he is sublime. And his Schubert can be anywhere - but that is what makes him fascinating. He treats every piece individually.

  • sublime, unico, c'è tutta la vita in questo corale!

  • Alfred Cortot once declared the prelude, choral and fugue the best piano composition ever penned. Richter does it justice.

  • somehow this is the first piece I always remember whenever thinking of Richter...specially those divine top melody pointing notes, it's heartbreaking music.

  • Thank you for putting this up, it is one of the most beautiful renditions of the Franck. Does anyone know where to get this on CD?

  • i believe that this is Franck's masterpiece without being myself a musician.This rendition,also, sounds excellent!

  • what a knock out!

    I also love Perahia's somewhat more lyrical and subdued rendition, wonder if anyone could upload it. his superb Lizst/Frank recital is sadly out of print

  • Pure beauty!!!

  • sem duvida um pedacinho do céu...
