I first heard this on vinyl I borrowed from the library. I kept it for months. Unforgettable so many decades later. Richter's conception is dreamlike. Thank you!

[Starting circa 12:44] The unhatched chicks are pecking at their shells.... the master Richter, has endowed them with the breath of life.... The percussive yet feathery voice he gives them through the chattering chords, for all their slapped density undeniably melodic.... This is magic, pure and simple!

When I first heard this as a teenager, by the time the last two scenes came around, I was shaking like a leaf in the wind, and did not fall asleep until sunrise

What a tone! He makes the piano live and breathe. To die for.....

Wow, what a phenomenal performance of Sviatoslav Richter!! He is the only one capable of creating and picturing, like a true poet, this magical piece of art! The interpretation and execution are breathtaking and bewildering!! Evidently Richter feels like a fish in the water! Astonishing and monumental!! I have the utmost admiration for the MAESTRO SVIATOSLAV RICHTER. Thanks for uploading this amazing gem!

A legendary performance. Wonderful to hear it remastered, with the coughing gone. Thank you.

I was fortunate to hear him play this piece in Symphony Hall in Boston during one of his rare visits to the US. It's one of the few musical experiences I have had that remains burned in my memory after all these years. I have never heard another pianist produce the sounds that Richter got out of that piano that day.

​​@@duvidl heard Richter did not like performing in the U.S. maybe he had more pressure and stress from the audience (maybe?). But I imagine that experience was to be a one time forever touch on the piano from both sides. (both literally and metaphorically speaking)

@@schrysafis Another reason for Richter not coming more often to the US was that he did not like flying and had to undergo a long ocean voyage..

S.Richter is BEST ...ALWAYS ... BRAVO !....THANKS for "remastered"

Wahre Meister am Klavier!

Wonderful.

I received this recrod on vinyl in the 70's - as a young piano student, I hadn't head of Richter, but I thought his playing was magnificent! I still have the vinyl, in pristine condition.

Lebhafte und wunderschöne live Aufführung dieser originalen Klavierversion der populären Suite im relativ schnellen Tempo mit klar artikuliertem doch etwas anmutigem Anschlag und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Die verbesserte Tonqualität ist auch ziemlich hoch als eine live Aufnahme von vierundsechzig Jahren vor. Wahrlich unvergleichlicher Virtuose!

Nice. They got rid of the audience's coughing

Thank you.

Best version ever !

Sofia is greatest, I think, but both are outstanding in their metric freedom and the novel-like wideness of their conception - played by a real artist.

Concert audience: all consumptive ??

How to get a sheet for this?

Tastes vary of course, but I think this is far from the best interpretation. However, I have to say you got a lot of emotion out of the recording that isn't present on the LP so congratulations! For anyone curious, I think Brendel hit the nail in the head with his recording for Philips.

1st promenade is so hurried and fast, in my opinion.

I agree with some that some tempos are a but fast. Prefer Ashkenazy's more nuanced version. Richter's strength in my eyes is all Rachmaninoff, most eminently the Etudes Tableaux.

Too fast. The opening number is intended to depict someone leisurely wandering through an art exhibit, NOT dancing through it.
