@mozartbg .... can they not actually open to the timbre of the tone that Richter produces, and realize what a warm, sensitive sound.... and actually listen to they way he creates wonderful legato in the melody, and clearly separates from the other parts in the piano?

@mozartbg You forget that while that Brahms was known to gush into rich gliding Romanticism, he balanced it by constantly referring to the conservatism of the Classical era. And can you not hear that wonderful tone? It's simply incredible as to the number of people that just cross-off Richter as being some hammer chopping technician simply because he plays the loud sections with the fire and passion that these other lethargic pianists are incapable of doing.

@SebastienLoong Phenomenal ??? May be, but this is not Brahms. The Hamburg's genious are turning over in his grave. Where is the Brahms' soul and romanticism? This is a performance for booth and luna park. Please listen Arrau, Perahia, Pollini......

@ffurgy I am agree with your parents or relatives. They are very clever and expert: the nickname "Bombastic Brahms" is very pinpointed and adapted to discribe like Richter "Hulk" or "Frankestein" performed Brahms. In my humble opinion the german genius' music for piano needs of more soul, heart and tenderness. Richter has been a pianos' destroyer like many russians' pianoplayers ( Zilberstein): she seems to want to break the instrument....and don't forget that Richter was a KGB spy !

I don't have exact date and place... It's just one of my files. I know Richter played these variations during 1984 in many places, but can't say where this particular one was recorded. It sounds though as an earlier than 80s.

His discography has Prague 1984, could this be from there?
