I love Richter's interpretation. To my mind he plays this sonata in exactly the right tempo, a opposed to a lot of modern pianists who rush the piece. Of course, we'll never know exactly what tempo Mozart wanted it played but it sounds so right, plus Richter gives you time to really enjoy it without the feeling he wants to get it over with quickly, rather like Gulda does.

I think it is fine, with purity and clarity (which some performers can not reach)

Thank you for this beautiful piece. I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Falun Dafa is a cultivation system in the Buddha School based on the principles of the Universe:
真 Truthfulness
善 Compassion
忍 Forbearance.
Since 1999 it has been brutally persecuted by the CCP in China.

I completely agree with you! Uchida's recording is awesome! And in my opinion, the best. However, Richter's recording is good.
-
Eschenbach is good, have you heard Uchida's, it's a good one also.
-
I like it,exept the ending...
-

a great recording of this piece, but Uchida's recording is by far the best one out there

didn't like the way he played the ending 8 bars or so, but the rest of the piece sounded just superb
Excuse me... Eschenbach

I found his performance to be rather flat for one of the most stormy piano sonatas of mozart

Hmmm... this is the first Richter recording that hasn't blown me away. I have to say that I find rhythmic articulation to be on the sloppy side. I feel as though the romantic rubato touch kicks in twice as much as needed for this sober piece.
