Richter's performance of Liszt has always the demonic edge and the transcendental quality that make listeners to wonder if Liszt himself might have played like this. These incandescent performances of Concerti are no exception. I've always loved this performance of the 1st concerto alongside earlier Urania recording by the master which has more urgency and fire. In the 2nd concerto, you will be amazed by the exquisite delicacy of Richter's playing. How many pianists today can make piano sound like this!

Richter is unquestionably in his element in these transcendental warhorses. The octave passage in particular in the first concerto literally makes the hairs stand up at the back of ones neck! His sheer power is at times quite staggering and is complemented well by the fine sound quality. If you liked this, I recommend his recording of Schuberts Wanderer Fantasy.
This recording is breathtaking, Richter plays like one possessed and shows real spirit and personality in this repertoire-you will not be dissapointed!

Definitive Performances of Liszt's Piano Concertos 28 Aug 2001
By John Kwok - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Richter's commanding performances of Liszt's piano concertos have been the benchmarks against which others are measured. These are demanding, technically difficult works; Richter's performances are riveting, dramatic traversals through these scores. And yet he manages to play with much empathy and warmth, without forsaking technical excellence. Kondrashin and the London Symphony Orchestra are fine accompanists, yet they can barely keep pace with Richter's playing. Philips' coupling of these concerti with several Beethoven piano sonatas is quite odd; one would have expected a more logical coupling would be with Richter's splendid account of Liszt's piano sonata. Yet his performances of these Beethoven piano sonatas are just as vibrant and warm as those of Liszt's piano concerti. Those interested in great performances of Liszt's and Beethoven's piano music by one of the legendary pianists of the 20th Century will not want to pass up this CD.

absolutely great 11 Mar 2004
By J. Zhu - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
this is a very intense reading of the liszt piano concertos... not lacking in any respect... despite what an obviously biased reviewer said here... richter's reading of the three beethoven sonatas included here are also well worth the price on their own... in sum, must get!!

Rare Richter Beethoven Sonata Recordings 18 Jun 2008
By Asia Khuf - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Richter's Liszt Concertos can't be beat, but I bought this CD to hear his versions of Beethoven Sonatas Nos. 10, 19 and 20, which are difficult to find on disc. Richter's rendering of #10 is delicate, passionate, playful, and intimate. He always does wonders with Beethoven's variations--check out his disc-full on Regis--and has a lot of fun with the march-like variations in the Andante section. Richter has less chance to show off his amazing technical skill with 19 and 20, both early "practice pieces" dating from the mid 1790s, but is poignant and convincing in eliciting their emotional content and deep musicality. Whether or not these are "definitive" recordings, you'll never listen to these pieces in the same way after hearing Richter's take on them.

Should these have been paired with the Liszt Concertos? That could be asked in another way: After hearing both Liszt Concertos, are you ready to hear Liszt's long Sonata as well? That's a pretty intense 74 minutes. I enjoyed the switch to lighter and less directly emotional. But if you don't have any recording of Richter playing Liszt's Sonata, you're missing out on something.
