There is no live performance to the best of my knowledge.

I have two recorings of this piece made by Berman. One wich you posted(where did you het it?).
And one wich I posted. I got it from the brilliant classics set, and it sais that it was reocrded live in Russian on 6-6-1950(togeher with these chopin etudes: 10.2, 10.10, 25.4, 25.8, 25.10, 25.11).
There is no applaus, but the sound quality and the fact that the cover sais it is live would suggest that it is a live reording(please help me out here 
).

I assume they’re the same recording–and certainly can believe he recorded them “live” as it were. In any event, it’s an astounding performance.

simply the Ho Rach 2nd Sonata
I just can’t believe that to this day.
I’ve listened to it probably 100 times in the last year and am still shocked.
