  Richter's pianism boasts such concentration, control, and beauty of sound that you come away mesmerized, and totally seduced. His piston-like rhythm, supple fingerwork, and exuberant temperament bring out all the inherent vibrancy and disquiet passion lurking beneath Schumann's mealy textures. At this price, you can't go wrong.

  Tennstedt's recording of Mendelssohn's Italian is well known – a sparkling performance from first note to last. Schubert’s 9th makes an apt coupling, and Tennstedt brings great dramatic sweep and an earthy honesty. Tennstedt’s fans will be glad to snap this up.
