Reviews:
A great artist of modern time", that was how music critics spoke about Sviatoslav Richter's art even when he lived. A wonderful Musician and Man with the broadest interests, a pianist with a vast repertoire and an enormous palette of emotions and timbres not every orchestra could compete with. "Richter's art is the one of mighty, gigantic passions", wrote his contemporary, musicologist Gennady Tsypin.
Firma Melodiya presents a long-playing album with Beethoven's works recorded by Richter. Sonata Pathétique and eight bagatelles were recorded in 1959.
