Description
Tracklist

Richter demonstrates the ultimate in architectural beauty and a tranquil interpretation of Bach.

Sviatoslav Richter's complete recording of J.S. Bach's "The Well-Tempered Clavier" is known as a masterpiece that combines spiritual depth and architectural clarity with a profound touch and meticulous composition.

This performance clearly demonstrates Richter's profound musical philosophy. The structure of each piece is clearly organized, and the direction of phrases and changes in harmony unfold with clarity. The tempo is extremely stable, creating a sense of breathing space within the melodic lines. Despite the limited dynamic range, the sound is dense, and even silence functions as a musical element. Pedaling is kept to a minimum, pursuing purity and transparency of sound. The recording is clear, and the hall tone remains natural. The treatment of ornaments and arpeggios is also precise, coexisting the rigor of Bach interpretation with poetic serenity. This performance evokes deep concentration in the listener, and is the pinnacle of Richter's solitary pianism.
