Composer:
Franz Schubert

Artist(s):
Sviatoslav Richter

Background: For some unaccountable reason given that the artist was Sviatoslav Richter, this recital was originally issued as a limited edition special offer for an English newspaper over 12 years ago and of course has never been available to the general public.

The recital is important because it adds Schubert's Variations on a theme by Huttenbrenner to Richter's official discography. Both Schubert's Piano Sonata No.14 D784 and Schumann's Fantasiestücke op.12 have been recorded commercially before but Richter when recorded live was always at his most mercurial. The Schubert, Schumann and Debussy all represent rare visits outside London, this time to Manchester's Free Trade Hall.
