- "I consider this recording of the Grieg Concerto with Matacic one of my genuine successes. Even after listening to it several times, I haven't changed my mind. I only hope that I am not wrong."
"I've always liked the Grieg Concerto. I like it for its ruggedness, virility and coldness: a bracing north wind blows through it, and when the piano enters in the second movement, you'd think you could hear a bird singing from the top of a tall pine tree. I also like it for its originality and its total absence of mawkishness."--Richter
Richter is the best pianist in the pianistic history , I met Him in Innsbruck Austria in 1977 !
Richter has his own scale to measure perfection!
Richter scale of magnitude.

One of the best performances of this masterwork ever recorded. Superb.
Divinely played concerto!The beauty of adagio especially fascinates me...Rachmaninoff said that this is the most beautiful piano concerto ever written🎹💖🎹💖🎹💖🎹🎹🎹
Music world celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century Sviatoslav Richter. His virtuoso technique combined with a huge repertoire and depth of interpretation.
For those wondering, this is Lovro von Matačić conducting the Orchestre National de l'Opéra de Monte Carlo in 1974.
Jacobus21 thank you
Jacobus21 Tk Info like this is so informative.
You were right Mr Richter, you were right. Migthy and remarkable performance.
Рихтер - выдающийся пианист 20 века, ему подвластно все! Какая энергия, сила, мощь, виртуозность, разнообразие звука, взрывоподобные динамические нарастания в сочетании с нежным пиано, взволнованностью исполнения, его глубиной и содержательностью. Все эти качества проявились и в исполнении концерта Э. Грига. Вторая часть переносит слушателя в мир северной природы,
восторженного упоения ее скромной красотой. Финал -бурный, ликующий -звучит как апофеоз жизни и гимн человеку.
Светлана Давыдова
23:33 to 24:10 is so magical. It never fails to take my breath away.
Thank you Sviatoslav Richter ......
I wish he could just be alive to make the world hear and underestand what classical music means...
One of the. most beautiful pieces of music ever written.With a finale to do it Justice.
that is Grieg's piano concerto
Рихтер как всегда безупречен. Каждый звук, каждая нота сияют как грани бриллианта.

unlike other concertos which fade at the end, Grieg's seems to gain in strength from beginning to end--the finale is the most thrilling of any concerto-it reminds me of a wild horse charging the fields--

Great Richter!
I CAN'T BELIEVE PEOPLE WOULD CRITICIZE THIS. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS PIECE. I PLAYED IT MY SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL - A MUCH SIMPLER VERSION. IT WAS MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE.
I gave it a thumbs down because of the advertisements in the middle of the performance. Unacceptable

00:00 1st Movement: Allegro molto moderato
12:40 2nd Movement: Adagio
18:50 3rd Movement: Allegro moderato molto e marcato - Quasi presto - Andante maestoso
Richter e Rubinstein sono gli unici pianisti chemi hanno veramente emozionato . Grande sensibilità entrambi.
Proud to be the 700th like. What a wonderful quote from Richter in your description.
BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not, you are not wrong-this is simply unbelievable... .
Исполнение Святослава Рихтера! Божественно🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Лучший в мире пианист❤ был и останется на веки!!!!!
Come on Elena! More colorful beautiful piano sound than Richter=Emil Gilels Wilhelm Kempff Radu Lupu Artur Rubinstein Vladimir Ashkenazy Grigory Sokolov! More genius than Richter=Grigory Sokolov Solomon Cutner Maurizio Pollini! More powerful louder than Richter=Mikhail Pletnev(Prokofiev piano concerto no 1 by Pletnev!) The second loudest was Lazar Berman! The 3rd Loudest was Erwin Nyiregyhazi! Horowitz his technique better than Richter!!
Why isn't it possible to give a like more then 1 time..
You can open another account and like it once more.(:))
As Richter's teacher Neuhaus related in his book 'The Art of Playing Piano' the concerto was vilified as 'second class' music, also confirmed in an interview with Arthur Rubinstein who said his piano teacher was saying exactly the same. Richter thus took a great risk to play it but he did the right thing. It is one of the greatest piano concerts written and Richter's success was taken for granted when he was first performing it with Monte Carlo State Orchestra with Matacic, a great conductor. It is the single one concerto I always wanted to play and can actually play it-actually the cadenza of the first movement which is extremely difficult to play.
Peter Fritz Walter Rachmaninov was of the opinion that Grieg's piano concerto is the greatest of them all. Of course that was before he wrote his own second and third concertos.
Interesting. I was led to believe the work was a success from the start, with contemporaries such as Liszt approving and lauding the piece
Liszt liked and played it. Vindication enough for me.
On paper, Grieg's piano concerto might look like "second class" music, but the paper isn't the music, that's for sure! This interpretation is spellbinding and puts the work where it belongs: right on the top shelf.
How can ANYONE criticize Richter?
Boggles the mind..
Exquisite rendition.
@@sandraschur5817Or Grieg either?
Richter was the pianist of the 20th Century
I have his autograph and attended one of London performance s

Perfection.
Que placer escuchar a Grieg y a Richter
И кто говорит, что Рихтер холодный и играет "по выверенным математическим формулам" ? Столько жизни в его игре и темперамент вулкана !
9 464 views and 2 dislikes!!! Are you kidding me, why the hell something like Gangnam style gets millions of viewers, when true music is lost in youtube. I mean, really, only if a person searches for Grieg and Richter, he will find these videos. But for pop singers, there are ads everywhere!!! -___-
People, are you seriously judging on Richter's, Rubinstein's, Lipatti's, Gilels's, etc.'s golden or ungolden tone basing on a recording? You make me laugh like crazy! Stop being stalkers.......... you and your golden tone.........
Plenitud, escuchen con el alma.

I consider this to be one of the three greatest Romantic Era piano concertos ever written. The other two are the Schumann concerto in A minor and Beethoven's fourth piano concerto in G major. Since it's impossible to compare Romantic Era concerti to those of the Classical Era, I should point out that I consider Mozart to have been the greatest composer of piano concerti who has ever lived.
Reply to self - I also consider Mozart to have been the greatest composer of all time with Beethoven ranked second but with a large gap between the two. Had Mozart not died of Scarlet Fever (the current theory) and lived to be 55 his works in the early Romantic Era would undoubtedly been staggering.
Gerry Rains Mozart most likely died of nephritis and antimony poisoning. I do agree with your assessment of his work. What would we have been blessed with had he lived a bit longer?!
Ben Sardinas That could be - we'll never be sure. He had many symptoms of Scarlet Fever, but there is no conclusive evidence since autopsies were not performed then and since he had no medical attention.
Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto makes me cry
Arielfischer If that's true you should definitely listen to the version with Geiseking - piano and Gunter Wand - conductor.
Liked this
cool vid
how do you know this is the best? how many recordings did he make? Which conductor orchestra is this one? nuts
Who disliked it?
People with the ear and the soul deaf !!!! I think so
Sebastian Ponce Maybe
Nicky Minaj and Justin Bieber
Though it comes in at well under 30 minutes, there is no sense of hurry.
Concerning Richter's "mawkishness" : (German) Ist das ein Seitenhieb gegen die Rührseligkeit der Romantiker ?
Thanks in advance for any clarifying comment.
Does Richter ever take over that cadenza in movement one! Overall, it's an original and clarifying, perhaps slightly austere interpretation, but a great work like this can take many interpretations and only grow. The musicians do seem very ON in this. Grieg himself said he never heard it played better than when Liszt sight read it (!) for him.
From the original manuscript score, adding in the orchestral parts.
He was right!
stupendo, ma le interpretazioni dello stesso concerto di: Gilels, Rubinstein, ABM sono di un altro pianeta. Tecnica impeccabile, lirismo profondo, dinamiche brillanti e tonalità luminose.
Anche quelle di M.Argerich e Radu Lupu sono stupende, ma non raggiungono la raffinatezza e la chiarezza d'espressione di questi tre.
While I think Richter was one of the "GODS" of piano to ever walk the earth. And this is an awesome recording the best recoding ever put on wax is still Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli. His playing of the cadenza UNMATCHED by anyone!

He oido muchas versiones, pero Richter....está fuera de parámetro. Alguien sabe los detalles de esta grabacion, fecha, luga, director?

By comparing and scaling these great musicians you are diminishing art itself. Every artist has its own mind, sensibility and technique which gives us varieties and choices. It is a matter of taste, not quality. Please do not make art into a competition. It is insulting to this wonderful composer and pianists.
dve kifle pcela Great comment. kudos to you.
dve kifle pcela Couldn't have said it better myself. This is my motto, I just hadn't composed it yet.
dve kifle pcela But Richter is better.
+dve kifle pcela, Oh please. Beethoven held several piano duels against other pianists and composers where they competed in improvisation etc. Then there's the story of Bach and Marchand organizing a harpsichord duel, which Marchand forfeited upon hearing Bach warming up on the instrument. Handel and Scarlatti dueled on organ and harpsichord, Handel winning the organ part and Scarlatti besting Handel on the harpsichord. Liszt and Thalberg famously battled to be crowned greatest pianist on earth. They competed to write the most awe-inspiring opera transcriptions etc. Heck, even many people argue that the idea of competition is built-into the concerto form itself. Some composers have overtly envision their concerti as battles between the soloist and orchestra. This is why Glenn Gould was always ill-at-ease with the concerto repertoire, because he instinctively felt this rivalry. Composers have been famously jealous of the popularity of another composer. There's books written about it, for pete's sake.
The reality is that on some level, there are musicians who are better at their chosen instruments than others. Some composers are better than others. I unequivocally think Bach was a better/greater composer than someone like Elton John. Call me crazy, but that's what I think.

18.30 - 18.50 8 quiet notes.

i like the most Radu Lupu playing Grieg concerto the best second to none.Others the good ones Dinu Lipatti Emil Gilels A.Rubinstein with the Grieg concerto
And Arturo Benedetti Michaeangeli! You forgot he is the best one!
..and Van Cliburn with Moscow and Kiril Kondrashin
@@pierrehenripontac8493 Cliburn his Grieg concerto the 3rd movement coda is the best structure! But piano sound Cliburn in 1972 in Moscow too Cool!
Excellent - plays like the Russian he is. For a more lyrical reading go to Leon Fleicher/Cleveland Orchestra/Szell
Oops 6:44
Best version in YT is Claudio Arrau
The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein ( The God) Grigory Sokolov ( The Giant The Titan of The piano) Emil Gilels ( The King) Sviatoslav Richter Wilhelm Kempff Maurizio Pollini Vladimir Ashkenazy Mikhail Pletnev Radu Lupu Vladimir Ashkenazy Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky ( better than Lipatti) Solomon Cutner Maria Grinberg Natalia Trull Rosa Tamarkina Ekaterina Novitskaya Dimitri Bashkirov!! Arrau a stiff machine Boring pianist!
Well done, but the performance with best musical tone, was van Cliburn with Eugene Ormandy!
Cliburn not The greatest! Cliburn his Grieg The piano sound too cool cold! The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein ( The God) Grigory Sokolov ( The Titan The Giant of The piano) Emil Gilels ( The King) Wilhelm Kempff Maurizio Pollini Radu Lupu Vladimir Ashkenazy Mikhail Pletnev Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky ( better than Lipatti) Solomon Cutner Maria Grinberg Natalia Trull Rosa Tamarkina Ekaterina Novitskaya Dimitri Bashkirov! Cliburn Not The greatest! Cliburn his Brahms piano concerto no 1 Not that Great! Cliburn his Grieg IS heavy with The cool cold piano sound!
The real GODS of the piano Radu Lupu Emil Gilels A.Rubinstein own this Grieg concerto.Gilels Lupu Rubinstein had a golden tone for Grieg concerto.S.Richter ABM did not have a golden tone for Grieg concerto
This is a perspective. Of course I can understand your joy when you hear from these outstanding personalities such R. Lupu or A. Runbinstein the real golden sound you are reffering to, but try to understand also the other perspective: If someone is NOT searching to achive the golden sound for or from E. Grieg but tries to give a very special, individual, in a way private and unique sound to this piece, than here it is. I swear I hear a norwegian composer trying to express his youth, his feelings, his architecture and his personality. This is what Richter always tries and achieves: To give the listener a very unique "portrait" of the piece and the composer, but without any artificial effort, so that at the end you think, you are hearing the piece itself, and not Richter.
Don't forget Martha Argerich
marmasiotis well put.
don't forget lipatti.
andries vds You are toally correct! The real Gods of Grieg concerto Rubinstein Gilels Lupu Lipatti.The poor magazine The Gramophone say buy Stephen Bishop-Kovacevich´ Grieg record CD.should be buy Lupu´s Grieg concerto record
