Dvorak - Grieg - Schumann: Piano concertos (2012)

Opnamen met dirigent Carlos Kleiber (Dvorak) uit 1976 en Lovor von Matacic (Grieg en Schumann) uit 1974, prachtig geremasterd voor deze luxe hybride stereo-SACD-uitgave. "While there have many recordings of the Grieg and the Schumann concerto, there have never been better performances than these by Sviatoslav Richter. His combination of strength and delicacy, of force and tenderness in the Grieg concerto has never been equaled. From the crashing chords of the opening through to the ethereal melodic heights of the close, Richter not only makes the piece sound like the best piece Grieg ever wrote, he makes it sound like a better piece than Grieg ever wrote. And his Schumann concerto is even better: powerful and whimsical, dramatic and epic, strong-willed and soft-hearted, it is ideal Schumann playing. Lovro von Matacic is a muscular and sympathetic accompanist, and the Monte Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra plays more than adequately if less than splendidly." (James Leonard, Allmusic; waardering: 5 uit 5 sterren)
