Sviatoslav Richter plays Medtner Sonata Reminiscenza, Op. 38, No. 1

I was going to post this on the amazing youtube videos thread, but because it is a true rarity and a true treasure, it deserves its own thread. I did not know such a thing existed! And thinking as I learned the sonata from Gilels, comparing the two is a portrait of the differences and strengths of the two Neuhaus pupils. It is exactly as would be expected...I'm so happy right now! Truecrypt has brought some true treasures to public attention. Is he by any chance familiar with this forum, I wonder?
