En la pista virtuosistica de los teclados mundiales de marfil, Richter es el mejor. Tal vez menos lo era esta sala de grabación, cuya acústica está totalmente seca.

@ericisindebt Prokofiev has a lot of very popular melodious pieces, like Lieutenant Kije or the Cinderella Waltz or Peter and the Wolf. But his truly cerebral and powerful pieces have desolate atonal spaces mixed with haunting and sometimes heartbreaking melodies, sarcasm, and fiendish, demonic dances. He also likes to cram a bunch of melodies together in a dissonant snarl. The most badass thing ever written is Movement 3 of piano concerto 2, Ashkenazy's, imo.

One of my favorite piano pieces!

@ericisindebt Try listening again :)

@scientistpatrick - No, the recording is not THAT old. I tuned pianos for much of my working life, thus my moniker (A444 is the frequency of concert A in much of Europe and Japan), and I can tell you that the second octave above middle C is particularly out of tune. Stage lighting can sometimes be the culprit. It's very hot and can heat up the piano and cause it to go out of tune. Or Richter was practicing immediately before the recording was made and the tuner had already left.

@TunaFishA444 Detuning might have been due to the old age of the recording, not the actual piano.

Sounds like music from the twilight zone, I understand music is very subjective. I can't even make out a melody in this. Maybe I'm just jaded.

@sessionmessiah You should hear Biret's reading of this sonata.

I find it funny that people attempt to find interpretative flaws with his Prokofiev, especially since he premiered most of the Prokofiev sonatas. No one will ever be richter.
