Thank you :) www.patreon.com/cmrr The Ballade corresponds to no strict instrumental form: a dance song, an elaborate vocal piece, a lyrical legend ?... The Ballade, Op.23 is like a broad and passionate poem in three parts, the emotional core of which is a long 6/4 time moderato framed by a short lento and a presto con fuoco. The next one is dedicated to Schumann and opposes episodes filled with drive and vigour to moments of gentleness and even tenderness: the active and the contemplative, plenitude and feverish agitation. The Ballade in A flat major, Op.47 was the most famous of the four in its time, from its first public performance at Pleyel's in Paris on 21 February 1842. Less vehement and rich in contrasts than the first two, its effect lies in its charm and poetic cohesion. The Ballade in F minor is the most sumptuous. Its neo-Slavonic theme that keeps on returning in a new, richer shape, is first stated with lyrical tenderness in the introductory andante after which it becomes a nocturne. A second theme, in the form of a barcarolle, suddenly animates matters; it is developed in canon before linking up with the first theme, summarized in three great fortissimo chords. Five long muted chords reply to it before a ferocious coda bursting with action, dissonances and digital difficulty.

How refreshing is this, compared to the sterile, note-perfect, renditions that are en vogue today. This is a whole other level of artistic depth

One of the greatest pianists of all time.

In Indian classical music there is a word called Laya. Loosely, it means the lyrical cadence and a sense of flow created by how the rising and falling of notes are spaced and linked. Exactly as the inflections of human speech indicate emotions that are universally understood. So much emotion. So much feeling. The unhurried, deliberate spacing can only come from great control and musical authority. It is so hard for a popular and much performed piece to be played with originality but without making it weird. Only a very great artist can surprise one like that.

"Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They're either lonely, they're missing somebody, they're depressed, they're hurt, they're scarred from the past, they're having personal issues no one knows about, they have secrets you wouldn't believe. They wish, they dream and they hope. And right now, they are sitting here reading these words, and I'm writing this for you so you don't feel alone anymore. Always remember, don't be depressed about the past, don't worry about the future, and just focus on today. If today's not so great don't worry! Tomorrow's a new chance. If you are reading this, be sure to share this around to make others feel better. Have a nice day!"💕🙏💗💕

Extremely profound performance.

Richter is one of my all-time favourites, he is always alive in my memory as a SPECIAL pianist

Chez Richter, toute musique est question de vie et de mort. Ce sens tragique, très librement éprouvé, est d'une puissance phénoménale et transcende toute critique. De ce point de vue, Richter reste unique !

Chopin‘s music he plays is the universal language

Thank you. Richter was at his peak in the 1960s. Such a gem!

Великий Рихтер! Великий русский пианист. А слушают его записи почему-то больше англоязычные люди. Слушают, восторгаются. А где же русские зрители? Ау! Все упиваются западной же попсой.... Как-то несправедливо, неправильно. Рихтер ездил по СССР очень много. Играл даже в музыкальных школах. Люди старшего поколения помнят эти концерты (я живу в Красноярске). Хочется, чтобы и молодые люди не просто слышали имена, но и любили наших русских гениев и их искусство.

Always captivated by Sviatoslav Richter playing Chopin - 4 Ballades. Thank you

Ein kostbares Revival, dieses Konzerts aus dem Jahre 1960 im Prager Rudolfinum! Warum sollen uns die "Husterer" stören, wenn wir nochmal dem Spiel dieses Jahrhundertpianisten so lebendig nahe kommen? Den ganzen Balladenzyklus Chopins hat Richter nicht oft gespielt - dieses Genre "musste" aber seiner Spielweise besonders liegen: Das Pianoforte als Ausdruck seiner Poesie in einem beispiellosen Verbund von trefflich gestalteter musikalischer Epik, Dramatik und Lyrik.

Пик творчества 60е . неслучайно.исполнитель с таким именем и в такой стране мог быть только в это время. браво!и спасибо что поделились.браво!

Bravo. Vous avez bien fait de nous restituer cet enregistrement. Vous n'êtes pas les seuls, mais c'est tellement miraculeux qu'il faut aimer et révérer ce recital légendaire. Encore merci

Every note sings!

Richter was a legend and the fact that he was largely self-taught, means a lot!

Nobody makes sense of the end of fourth ballade like Richter.

this is perfection

Wonderful Richter. Unfortunately the pieces are interrupted by ads, which should have been placed in between pieces, not within them.

21 feb 1960-This recital is one(of many) among the best;the Etudes that are played in this recital are excellent!!!

Belle interprétation.

The greatness of Chopin is off the charts, and far superior splendor Richter is a super Alchemist of Chopin‘s music

Este audio es una joya! . Amado Richter... Como comparte su intensa emocion! Gracias por esta belleza.!

Truly a century´s recording !!!!!!

Я воспитана на этой музыке. Это лучшее исполнение, которое вообще может быть.

Simply put, just beautiful!

Inimitable SR…..performs his way…always worth a close listen. Energetic cadenza for #4.

SUPER GENIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

リヒターは後年、日本にも興味がありました。 初来日は1970年、55歳の時です。 その時かどうかは不明ですが、日本の楽器メーカー、ヤマハのピアノに感心したことが切っ掛けでした。 ヤマハの工場を訪れてもいます。 その時、作業している人達に感謝の言葉を述べ、その場で即興で弾いてくれたそうです。 「この素晴らしいピアノを作った人々の前で演奏できることは光栄であり、私は大変緊張しています」と挨拶したそうです。 また神社にも関心があったそうで、多くの神社を訪れていたようです。 日本語で神社の雰囲気を表すのに使われる「おごそか」という言葉が好きだ　とも語っていたそうです。

Wonderful restoration of a real classic. The first Ballade is more a reverie than a ballad.

La mejor interpretación de las baladas. Por lejos. ¡ Cuántas toses, Dios mío ! Pero a Richter no le gustaban los estudios de grabación.

Mmm... thank you.

Merci beaucoup.

Originalissima interpretazione: lucida e rabbiosa.

maravillosa version, tal vez la mejor que conozco ...

Qué refrescante, tranquilizante, que son estas melodías, que nos llenan de paz, de sonrisas apenas esbozadas. Chopin el de siempre, el inigualable. Que musica q nos llena de serenidad y optimismo. Gracias por compartir. ❤

Nr. 2 - fantastic!

Звучит мистически , Мостом в Царство Альфа и Омега, фортепиано ! Преодолением движений на пути к Совершенству Целого !

아름다운 피아노 연주곡 잘 들었습니다~감사합니다~🎵🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤수고 많으셨습니다~☕

Thank you. ❤

I see Richter I press like. Richter is like any other, he is the greatest for me.

Потрясающее ОТКРОВЕНИЕ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

🕊🌟🕊 ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL 🙏💜🙏 💜🎵💜

Very very wonderful ! Genius. !

Much of Chopin's music is enigmatic to me. It can be immensly uplifting or it can be rather dry and tedious. The difference (in my view) is completely in the interpretation of the score. Two pianists possessing ample technic and one moves the universe and the other one I lose interest in. Richter's early recordings (like this one) are just sublime. Horowitz too, excelled at these.

why is chopin's second ballade being slept on that hard

Meraviglioso grandissimo

Excelente concertista

Wunderschöne und lyrische live Aufführung dieser vier romantischen und fein komponierten Balladen in verschiedenen Tempo mit brillantem doch zugleich anmutigem Klang des technisch perfekten Klaviers und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Die verbesserte Tonqualität ist auch ziemlich hoch als eine live Aufnahme von mehr als sechzig Jahren vor in Prag. Zweifellos einer der zehn besten Pianisten im 20. Jahrhundert!

What else can you say except "Thank you, Maestro."

Richter brings order to the chaos of Chopin 😄

Muy hermoso gracias mi hijo es un futuro talento. Saludos chaya Man

Que belleza las 4 baladas.

Genial interpretaciòn!

the goat of piano for me, and there's a lot of hurdles to go over for any pianist in order to de-throne him just as a side note to this ''reference recording'': i must make myself ignore the coughs in the audience, ty

Какая стройность и какая сила духа !

In moretions of pianist Gilberto Tinetti in rádio Cultura fm de São Paulo who formations pianist with your program in leve the excellence. Thank you Tinetti ours best friends forever.

Hermoso

So glad I could hear him live towards the end of his career. This type is only found in Trafinov and Kissin today…

Interesting- the 4th isn't taken as slowly as in his great 1962 Venice performance... nice interpretation nevertheless

Thanks, seems quite nice… sound, etc….

sin palabras todo sentido auditivo

Pure energy

lota guts stalling out the opening so i really listen, and oh the quality of the piano!!!!!!

On KZfaq there is a nationally televised broadcast at Carnegie Hall of a concert from 1968 by Vladimir Horowitz and he opens with this Ballad..no. 1 in Gm, and I sincerely feel that it sounds like this performance by Richter. I have been a long time listener and amateur player and I can tell differences between great artists performing this piece..the nuances and dynamics..pedal usage..tempo, the little sparkling rubatos and, color... wow this sounded exactly like the 68 Horowitz version.

Nossa .. Interpretação de tirar o fôlego ! A balada número 1 de Chopin é uma espécie de "Autorretrato" do mestre nascido na Polônia, mas de estilo francês

Cómo toca! Este tipo si que entiende al compositor...y quiere al público. Con decirte que no mató a los que tosen......

Surely as great a combination of musician and pianist as we've ever seen. His playing seems, at its best, so inevitable. The tone is among the deepest of all pianists'. I don't find his Chopin as idiomatic as some others' ... (though Richter would laugh at the idea that one should respect idiom) ... but it still has extraordinary sincerity and power. So much power. Again, that inevitability.

Todos esses pianista estam no meu face book

❤❤❤

I bought six! Chestnut!

Nr. 1 - better than Horowitz …

Richter's father Theofil Richter, a German national, was executed because he was unwilling to evacuate to the East. Thus, according to the red scumbags, "he was a collaborator, waiting for the German's arrival". The Richter's mother, with other man, evacuate with the German Army, feared of repercussions. After, they lived in Germany. The Richer's mother died c1961-62 in Germany. After illness and brief hospital stay, which was fully covered by Richter's money. Richter didn't know where exactly his mother was... until mid 50ies. Later they often meet, but Richter think of her like "for me, she is not the same person I knew".

If make as obras who is more heard will all as Victorie in piano for orchestra to play as obras that musician in concurse of piano if make possible.
