This recording is second to none! I keep my LP as a prized possession.
Richter Très Inspiré, beaucoup de Poésie, Version sublime !!
Une Direction dans le meme état d'Esprit ....
So beautiful, the bells in the left hand...
No one tones chords or shapes phrases more beautifully than Richter.
while i havnt listened to many versions of this piece, something about richters version touches a feeling in the composition that regardless of the composers original intention, is intense emotional and honest.
That's the best recording Richter did with this concerto, not the earlier ones. It is very balanced because the conductor channeled Richter's boasting musical energy in the right direction. And as I have the record, I can only say, it's amazing what venyl recording can offer compared to sometimes mediocre CD recording. The nuances are all there, without digital technology.
An Immortal Recording of the 20th Century. Period.
perfect performance,especially 5:50-6:10. the piano comes alive and begin singing by itself...this is THE rach2.
This is probably the best piano recording of the 20th Century.
The conductor is Stanisław Wisłocki. The orchestra is Warsaw National Philharmonic Orchestra. The date of the recording is 26-28/04/1959.
Well ..... 1996. It was just one year before his death. Just sublime.
quite possibly the most beautiful piano concerto of all time.. listening to this inspired me to search ebay for a sealed audiophile vinyl pressing of this concerto & I did find one ( not this actual recording )....I suspect that Art Garfunkel was listening to Rachmaninov for inspiration in the early 70's because the passage from about 1.30 to 1.50 always make me think of an old song of his titled 'second avenue' which might explain why I liked that song ( & still do ) when it was ' new ' LOL
truly beautiful...
This was no brief encounter for Rachmaninof! a most brilliant piece.
IMHO, that's exactly what felt the author while creating this masterpiece :)
My favourite interpretation of this concerto (with Boris Berezovsky's). This is just perfect.
Moderato is a medicine for my sick soul.....Richter is divine
Superb! This verson sets a standard hardly to be met. Nothing remains to be said about Richter's playing but the orchestra also sounds impeccable!
WooooooooooooooooooooooooooooW Freat Music and Great Performance!!! WOOOW
The perfect interpretation. Richter playes it much better than Rachmaninov himself!
I've heard many people who said that Richter played too "powerful". I feel sorry for those, who can't allow this true genius to express his feelings better than they can themselves...
my favorite as well :)
you put it, you listen to the agreement sublimely ask Richter, his accent so expressive, the works of Rachmaninov, so beautiful and you think of all those damn cochoneries of nuclear war, the misery in the world ... us for life and you start to cry.
Magnificent Richter
"I listened again to my performance of Rachmaninov's 2nd Concerto with considerable pleasure; some of it has turned out quite successfully and is certainly on a par with the work itself.
In terms of its virtuosity, I also found it quite acceptable. This is what happens when you don't listen to an old recording for a long time."
From a notebook of Sviatoslav Richter, 1977
Just imagine Richter with pleasure listening to his own recording. :) "Hm,... quite acceptable"... ;)
4:31 onwards always gets me ... I drop whatever I'm doing, and just wish it would last longer than those measly few seconds.
BRAVO!
@99hoolio
Thanks for the clarification... I was pretty doubtful also. lol
bellisima pieza!!
Richter is immense.
thanks for the comment!
I see, but it still seems a bit off timed with the cellos in the beginning, but I guess this is his style.
One of the most emotionally captivating pieces of music ever
🧡
I agree absolutely with everything in your comment. I´d add Benno Moiseiwitch´s
recording to this list.
Best in time.
@gc65531941 I think it was Chopin who said of Franz Lizst, "I wish I could steal his way of playing my etudes!" :) And we can thank God that no pianist plays Ravel like HE did!. Compare the 2 clips of the Pavane on here (Richter's and Ravel's)
i found my self crying
@gc65531941 The interpreter is the secondary physical medium for the composer's art. Concert performers all know that in order to "interpret", they must first remove their egos and simply become an extension of the primary medium, in this case the piano.
@batmanpronz Of course you will not be flamed, as you are very right.
This one's from '59, the cd was made in '96....
Hi, was this really performed in 1996?
trovar.com/str/dates/a1996.html
This states otherwise, but it doesn't list him playing Rachmaninoff in the 90s at all, so I don't know how accurate it is...
I thought Richter had hearing difficulties in his last few years, though. I think it was in his documentary. If I recall correctly he heard all notes a semitone higher than they actually were. And I think as a result of this he was unable to perform in his last two years...
Helene Grimaud with Claudio Abbado.
Richter....His Rach2 is the best.
@OctoberSabine you know anything about Sviatoslav Richter and his enormous respect for Rachmaninov, or his ideas about music and music making? you would't make such a statement if you did
You should hear Rubinstein for this piece.
@bbvoncrumb In particular I believe Richter wins everything at 7:04 .
@gc65531941 Of course!!
@OctoberSabine Did I say anything about Vladimir Horowitz? Good.
Yeah, pretty much the same land of Guiomar Novaes.
with all respect to Richter, hes very good ... i but i prefer Van Cliburn Playing this master piece ... ^^ ...
Could you make it available on mobile
the best version than i have listened is from the pianist julius katchen and the conductor sir gregor solti, and i´m not very a fan of richter, but he plays that very very good (not as better like julius) but in my opinion the conductor isn´t just de best, but its ok¡
@99hoolio Ah?
@OctoberSabine
In other words, he plays like a Russian?
only one who challenge richter rachmaninov 2 has to be stanislav igolinsky. richter powerful furious titanic. igolinsky plays more beutifully water painter technique some one in finland have a c cassette igolinsky playing rachmaninov 2 with finnish radio symphony please load that one
bad timing in the beginning?
@sizzlinfr Except Martha Argerich, but not on this piece.
Anch'io.
Eppur lo sono...
i actually prefer Richters interpretation over Rachmaninovff's!
I don't know how you can judge a non-existent recording..
You are so f***in right!
Argerich? Lang Lang!?!? Haha. :)
@99hoolio Richter could play in any ages^^
@OctoberSabine I get the impression, when Richter (or Horowitz )plays you don't listen to Brahms, or Rachmaninov, or Beethoven, rather you listen to Richter (or Horowitz). They are re-interpreters, with their unique sound and distinctive flamboyant style- all their pieces sound the same.They lack depth or clever musical interpretation. This is why I favour Gilels.
оркестр в ауте))
Is that the way you get away from this?
@OctoberSabine That's sad you've such a small mind and spirit.
@bbvoncrumb I agree, this is a hearing orgasm :)
Nope and neither have you because she never recorded or played it in public.
@pookiehohn
lol k
And no shame at all?
