By the way, today is the Tenth Anniversary of His death.
Phenomenal. I can only bow in his passing.
Let us all pay our respects by dedicating a work or performance to him this week.
da jarr shuld pozz take note
hahaha…damn…
da chriz pozz has a bootleg of tiz concert.
Hehe, not quite. But the Prokofiev 8th on Revelation is from a week earlier. That’s my favourite Prok 8th, so you can imagine how insanely he played it on the night described in the article…
haahaha diz TV team zhorly not quite :mart: level
hahahah, great! Though, a shame the recital was not recorded! But perhaps it´s better like this!
ahahahahahah
ahahaha tru i meant to acknowledge thiz CG earliah alzo
da chriz, do u know why da Richter shy away from da camera latter in hiz life?
He really didn’t. There are lots of videos of Richter from 1980 and on. I don’t think he was ever against being recorded on video… I think there were just some days where he didn’t need that shit - camera crews are a bit distracting.
Plus, I think he regarded music as a non-visual art. I doubt he understood or appreciated the fascination people have with watching hands move on a keyboard… though that makes two of us…
richter himself is a very taciturn person imo, just like da ABM.
