Easily one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century, Sviatoslav Richter recorded 9 albums for Detusche Grammophon between 1956 and 1962. All 9 of the solo and concerto LP-recordings are now available together, and at a budget price for the first time. A brilliant performer as well as an enigmatic personality, Richter dominated the classical music scene for decades and gave landmark performances in almost every style from Bach to 20th century works. Beautifully packaged, the albums are presented in their original couplings with the original LP artwork on individual CD sleeves. Special budget price! Many of these albums have never been available at budget-price before.
