A little bit of-topic but... Does anybody knows if the Michelangeli/Giulini DVDs quality is like these by the Richter's ones? Guilherme ... oh well, here's my...

I saw the Michelangeli/Giulini performances on video a number of years ago in a second generation transfer. If that was any indication, the quality was way...
Hi, I just received the third DVD of this issue (as Hans Wilhelm reported for example). Yes, poor package (the envelope was broken but luckily not the DVD...
I have also purchased six of these Richter DVD's. Not so amazingly the Schumann Tocatta is my favorite. It is perfect. It is so sad the maestro did not...
... Second or third. But Leslie made the first and most pleasent meeting of the correspondent's for me. Soon after I had the pleasure to meet Walter Moskalew,...

Ates- I am curious, and you probably know the answer... does the CBC ever rebroadcast the Festival series that has been the source of so many fine recent...
CBC has not been broadcasting any from that series and I was told their deal with VAI is the reason. I agree that commercial releases on DVD is the best way...

I noticed that the Richter discography on the trovar website has not been updated since October of 2002. Is there another website with a more updated version...
I was under the distinct impression that brilliant classics had gained the license for the old russian revelation/yedang material, as was released in the...

Hi, I´ve got a friend who plays piano and loves Slava and last week he asked me how long were the hands of Richter to understand how could he play some works....
Hello -- I have read in Notes and Conversations and heard in Bruno Monsaingeon's film that Sviatoslav Richter gave many spontaneous performances. "I may play...
I hope the price of EUR 10,99 for 5 CDs is not an "advertising error". Also, I was led to believe that there was going to be 14 CDs released. Considering the...
Hi Alex, ... There is a drawing of Richter's hand made by himself, life-size, indicating "dirty nails" by an arrow - from a letter to Aunt Mary. I have an...

Hi, No, the price of Eur 10.99 is no error. I just had my order confirmed at that price. Ironically, the shipping cost to the USA is more than the cost of the...
Richter's hand were big but not huge (like Rachmaninov or Karelin) The basis for some "abnormal" chords etc. for example in the "authorized" Phillips CDs is...

Richter took a duodecima (C1-E2) easily, while Rachmaninof had a span by two white keys wider (C1-G2). Richter's hand size is discussed in detail in the book...
