I remember being there and the playing was astonishing. For those who like trivia, the reason he glanced upwards a lot during the 1st Etude was because the camera above was making a noise which annoyed him. He nearly walked off

“Just because you can play Chopin Etudes fast, doesn’t make you a musician/pianist.” Richter’s musicality is beyond our imagination which proves even further that “Etudes” can sound less like an exercise and more like a beautiful poetic music. Love you Legend ❤️❤️

Plus, nowadays not many pianists, young or old, can DARE to give a recital of Chopin Etudes. It’s too risky. Yet here is Richter, at this age, dominating the Etudes…

[@pianisthenics]

Actually it’s pretty common in South Korea and Japan for young kids to study/practice and perform the whole 24 études of Chopin (I have done it back in 2010 as well) Although miles away from Richter’s level, obviously.

I was there: he played these as though they were childs play! I had the good fortune to hear Richter several times in recitals: I remember each one vividly. The greatest was when he played Beethoven's Op 106, and then came back and played the fugue again - even better than the first time!
