Oh my god, I'm gonna kill myself after I listen completely this piece. I didn't know that Richter has such an enormous performance in Chopin, particularly in this piece. A divine interpretation!

I think Richter is a genius. It is not only a true master is also a Coloso...
his virtuosity, in our time has been lost, it's a shame

Ahhhh...... the beauty of Chopin's music... This is perfection!
This interpretation is great, it's powerful and inspiring. By the way, I think Richter looks a little like John Malkovich.

Yes!!! I always felt Malkovich would be the perfect match for Richter's role, if such movie would ever be made! Body language, face expression, even the way he talks...

Really? You said that Richter was a very kind and generous man. To me Malkovich is a brilliant actor, truly unique, but full of what I would call a "negative charm." He's someone that's fascinating to watch but I wouldn't go to have a beer with him, so to speak.

I don't know about Malkovich character, but he definitely has some "magnetic" qualities. He may have completely different personality but I just feel he could play Richter like nobody else. You know - just a feeling... ;)
