I still think Argerich's recording she made when she was 19 (!!!) is much better.

This live version from Carnegie Hall 18/05/65 is THE version of all.
The atmosphere is so intense,all other versions from other pianists have altered tempos:fast,slow,fast,slow...
Truecrypt, did you take it from an Lp since my version(CD-Philipps) does not sound as good.

Hair-raising performance, as always when to comes to Richter.
Thanks for posting.

A bit childish to frame someone with contradiction. There are no rules.
Also, this was a good play, I think.

This is from your recent comment on another video: "In fact, just for purposes of comedy, I'm going to find some extremely brilliant and energetic performance by Richter and say that he plays like a tired, spent man. "
So, you said it... Satisfied?

I worked on that sonata when I was 18. You need to open your heart and let the soul come out. Its the most wonderful romantic work that exist.
