This is absolutely some of the most inhuman piano playing on record. I've never heard the opening of Noctuelles sound so crisp and yet fluid at the same time.

Ravel: "quarter note = 128 environ"<br>Richter: 190 should do it

A miraculous performance. I can see why people froze their asses off waiting to get to see him in post war Russia.

1965! That was the year I heard him here in my home town, San Diego, CA. He played "Une barque sur l'ocean" and "Alborada del gracioso". I'll never forget the spellbinding web he created with just those two pieces. And there was so much more!! Thanks for posting!

Incroyable ! Quelle maîtrise et quelle intelligence artistique ! ”Une barque sur l’océan” flotte sur les vagues cosmiques de l’existence même.

If I had to keep only one recording, it could be this one. This is absolutely inhuman. The quality of the piece is absolutely unbelievable and so is Richter's playing.... Out of this world, the finest of finest.<br>My absolute favorite pianist with Dinu Lipatti and Samson François

This without the shadow of a doubt one the most pure, sincere and transcendental piano recordings of all time

Perfect. Third movement is just miracle. The using of piano tone is unbelievable. How could he play like this by live?
