I remember reading about someone who attended this concert and said they left the concert hall feeling like they have been hit by lightning.

I heard GG play this at a concert in the EASTMAN Theater when I was a student there...I also met him..after sneaking into the theater to listen to him practice, which was a mesmoizing experience for me. (He also played the Eminor Partita)

I'm almost sure it's a recording during his concerts in Moskou/Leningrad in 1957

Thank you for posting this performance.
It blew my mind.
No.4!
Cannot believe no one made this old LP to a CD or MP3.

It's from an LP of mine, published by Le Chant du Monde, never reissued on CD, AFAIK.
