Beethoven by Richter.

[Petter]

Is there any record or compilation etc (on cd) which contains both Pathétique and Appassionata?  I managed to find one on amazon.com but it seemed to be an obscure expensive one. Help appreciated, thanks =)

[gerryjay]

 hey petter!
 here's one that's neither expensive ($7,18) nor obscure (arrau):
https://www.amazon.com/Beethoven-Piano-Sonatas-Ludwig-van/dp/B00000411Z/ref=sr_1_1?ie=gUTF8&s=music&qid=1200954600&sr=1-1

 and another one (ashkenazy/7,18):
https://www.amazon.com/Beethoven-Piano-Sonatas-Nos-14/dp/B00008J2OV/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1200954782&sr=1-1

 btw, i think i'll buy this one myself... well, here's my query:
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_m/104-7133425-1092729?url=search-alias%3Dpopular&field-keywords=beethoven+sonatas+pathetique+appassionata

 hope that helps!

Was not the original poster specifically asking for Richter recording?

[point of grace]

oh, you can find mp3 recordings there too by many artists

yes I was, but I think I´ll just buy this Beedrom bliss with beethoven instead, marvelous concept btw

I just looked at that 'Bedroom Bliss' CD which RCA shamelessly released. It turns out that Previn (whose symphony movements are used) is very upset about its release, which seems a little ironic since he has used his musical standing to sleep with anything that moves...

If I understood you well, you wanted richter playing and a cd that contains both pathetique an appassionata ... there you go!

[Petter]

No I wasnt serious  .
 And thats the record I found too while browsing amazon and it seems intereresting, but 80 dollars + shipping to sweden is pretty expensive for one CD.
 If you would skip the specific sonatas I mentioned, what record by Richter would you recommend? (solo piano)

[gerryjay]

 here´s an interesting link to his (perhaps) complete discography.

 personally, my two favorite recordings by him are hindemith´s 1922 suite and mussorgsky´s tableaux. however, i lend both to friends and don´t have the information about the cds here...

What do you think of this record as a starter?

That set is possibly one of the best introductions to Richter's artistry. The playing is absolutely phenomenal throughout. Great sound quality too. *two thumbs up*
