Dear Group, I recently got back from La Roque d'Antheron where I went to see Dezso Ranki (who played) and Grigory Sokolov (who was ill). This inevitably got me...

Hi Jochen, Thanks for the interesting post. EMI must be in need of quick cash, as they have been releasing box sets of several artists. Although there is no...
It's also a little disappointing to see the cavalier way the Beethoven Violin Sonatas and Mozart Violin Sonatas are used as fillers. On the other hand, it is...
Hi Andrew, What is the copyright time period in Europe? In the USA, it seems to be 50 years. While Lipatti's EMI recordings are more than 50 years old, ...
Hi, I just listened to this Doremi CD, and frankly , I was disappointed. All the pieces in these 2 CDs sound as if they were excessively filtered. The Brahms...
Yes, 50 years. So there is a plethora of releases now of material recorded in the early 50s. EMI only has exclusive rights to the recordings from say 1960...
... Hi, Ates Tanin has just informed me that Doremi does not use filtering in mastering their CDs. However, many of them sound to me, and to others, as if...
Dear friends, I think that I need an information from somebody! In the site hmv.co.jp I read that the label Archipel sells a delivery of the second Concert for...
I was just listening to that CD, which seems to be available only in Japan, and it sounds the same as the version with Georgescu to my ears. Ates ... In the...
Hi Els, I just received a message from Ates Tanin of Doremi Records, about another matter. He mentioned to me that the Archipel CD supposedly with Barbirolli,...

Hello all, Today, I received the Parnassus cd (PACD 96032) with Richter's complete Leipzig recital of November 28, 1963, which I ordered online from MDT...
This is indeed a very good choice. The Beethoven op.111's first movement is the best of all the versions I heard with Richter. The atmosphere is overwhelming ...
Hi Martijn, Thanks for the tip. I ordered mine here in the USA, and am awaiting its arrival. The old Music & Arts CD was welcomed, but had sonic deficiencies,...
I notice Arkiv music has a special of all the live Richter BBC releases for $9.99 each. Can anyone suggest the best ones, if one cannot afford all of them? ...
... Yes. Quella serie Eloquence Germania (come il Gulda, ad esempio) ha libretti e scritte solo in tedesco: non credo da noi ci sia. ... Temirkanov costa 25...
Hi, Raymond. And an all-around hello to the group as this is my first post on this board. Happy to be among fellow Richter admirers! As far as the BBC Legends...
I would also recommend Richter's BBC Schubert disc from a Royal Festival Hall Recital in 1979. Sound is good and Richter's playing is unforgettable. Graham...

hi Raymond I would suggest for a start the 2 discs featuring the 4 Schubert sonatas played on 31/03/79 in London. In that way you could listen to a full...

Dear Zolt, Yes, Richter did support if not promote several young musicians, there among many pianists, the last and perhaps closest to him being the German...
