"why see the face? it only shows the work put into music"

totally shuts down any lang lang fans

Re Gould, I don't think anyone can top the Goldberg recording or the one of Brahms

10 Intermetzzi and Op 10 Ballades. Maybe he was not the constant perfectionist the Richter was, but he was frequently sensational. Why all the Gould haters here??? Bravo for his excentrices as far as I am concerned. And I will listen to what he has to say.

@gkollias14 I wasn't very familiar with it myself. However, I happened across a tracklist online that was helpful; to find it, try a search with the terms (including the quotation marks): "richter the enigma music DVD"

thank you. I had never heard this movement.

Does any one know the piece at 2:29?

[lefaguais]

@bboymango totally agree with you. Lang Lang shouldn't even be considered a pianist, but a clown .

someone tell John Malkovich to make a movie about Richter. they look like twins.

I require more of myself! That's Ruchter.

I am so proud of YAMAHA ! His autograph in the piano was "リヒテル " = Richter in Japanese. He is just like lady gaga.
