"Richter's performance has all the intensity of a live occasion and finds him in splendid form. ... the basic structure is always kept in sight: there is impressive weight and authority as well as a warm Brahmsian feeling and it is far more dashing and spontaneous than his later recording (with Maazel)" - Penguin Guide 3 stars (Concerto)
