Radu Lupu and Murray Perahia playing Brahms' Variations on a Theme by Haydn for two pianos, op. 56b, live in 1981. Saint Anthony Variations - St. Anthony Chorale - 2 pianos
What a pleasure. Hearing pianists like this makes it feel great to be alive. Still attending Perahia's performances whenever we can. Thank you for this special performance!
An incredible blending of two of the best pianists around (Lupu is tops for me the big Rumanian has the power and amazing delicacy) what a lovely work this is.
Versión prodigiosa, irrepetible, de una intensidad emocional que no encontramos en ninguna otra interpretación. La impronta del gran brahmsiano que era el pianista rumano es decisiva. Tras oírla comprendemos por qué Johannes sentía una especial predilección por esta bellísima obra

@ADGO I live this recording! One of my favourite stories from Richter... Slava tells a story about Neuhaus and Lupu staying up too late drinking then being too hung over to perform the next day 😂
