About
This edition of Richter’s Schubert interpretations from 1948 to 1963 has some CD premieres to offer, taken from hitherto unreleased live recordings. Special guests are Borodin Quartet, Nina Dorliac and Mstislav Rostropovich. Sviatoslav Richter (1915–1997) was one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. Profil Edition Günter Hänssler has already released CD box sets featuring Richter’s performances of works by Ludwig van Beethoven (PH 16030) and Franz Schubert (PH 17005). The twelve CDs that make up this edition are devoted to the composers Schumann, Brahms and Reger.
