Notes
Richter's first and most famous public concert recording - a favourite of his. As the Critics put it; (-a genius made it, and another is turning the handle).... Transcendental studies: superior performances will only be heard in heaven. In Feux follets, an ethereal sensibility unmatched in my experience." (Gramophone)
