Composer/Series: Sviatoslav Richter plays Schubert 1949 - 1963
Description
The present Edition of Richter’s Schubert interpretations from 1948 to 1964 has some CD premieres to offer, taken from hitherto unreleased live recordings. One is the two movement version of the Piano Sonata no. 6 in E minor D566. The Moscow live recording from 1958 also shows that Richter is one of the very few pianists of note to have played both versions, the other being in three movements. That also applies to the shortened (Urtext) and full (ed. Brahms) versions of Impromptu no. 1 D946 and the largely unknown original version of the third Impromptu of D899 (in G major) and the popular version in G flat. Then there is the never officially published recording of the unfinished Sonata no. 15 D840, nicknamed 'Reliquie' in the mistaken belief that it was Schubert’s last sonata.
