Synopsis

Amazon.com
This is Sviatoslav Richter's only recording of the Rachmaninoff First Concerto, made in 1955. He plays the music with blazing excitement, powerfully supported by the excellent conducting of Kurt Sanderling. This performance is worth the very modest price of the CD, which is fortunate since we don't really need the recording of the Second Concerto, fine as it is. Richter's Warsaw recording of this piece (Deutsche Grammophon) is just as well played as this one, and the ringing clarity of DG's stereo represents his tone much better than the Soviet mono sound. --Leslie Gerber
