[Concerto: Richter insisted on playing Dvorak's originally-conceived version and not the then-standard, as transcribed by Vilem Kurz]... "Richter pronounced that it was the most difficult concerto he had ever tackled but somehow he made Dvorak's original, unrevised piano-writing - sound totally convincing" [Quintet] "Quick and sensitive as Richter's playing is,... with the Borodin Quartet supporting him sympathetically the performance has vigour and charm" (Gramophone)
