Sviatoslav Richter Warsaw, National Philharmonic Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No.2 In C Minor Limited 180gram Heavyweight Vinyl LP

Overview:
Five legendary recordings return to vinyl, mastered from original sources and pressed on 180g heavy-weight vinyl with original jackets and liner notes. Martha Argerich’s celebrated live recording of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto with Claudio Abbado makes its way to a stand-alone single vinyl release for the first time (previously only available on this format within a boxed set). Sviatoslav Richter’s legendary interpretation of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No.2, Wilhelm Kempff's classic accounts of three Beethoven Sonatas, Gundula Janowitz's transcendental performance of Strauss's Four Last Songs, timed around her 80th birthday, Mstislav Rostropovich's inspirationally expressive (and best-selling) recordings of Dvorák’s Cello Concerto with Karajan. All releases include a voucher with a unique code to download the digital audio files (MP3) of the full album for free.
