"Richter's interpretations in these years had an elemental power, unselfconscious
abandon that was refined and tempered in later life. These entirely unedited
performances, given over more than three decades from the mid 1950s to the late 1980s,
feel not only live but somehow extraordinarily real. Not that Richter ever gives the 
impression of playing for the microphone, and his visions of music structures remains
constant whether in the studio or concert hall. ... The Schubert D major Sonata (studio
recording 1956) is a tower of inner strength" (Gramophone)
