I am practicing this piece now, and listened to many recordings and I find Richter the best. He might not be natural Mozart player but profound reading of the music is comparable.
Richter admitted to finding Mozart highly challenging, he felt he was'nt wholly attuned to the musical style and language of the composer. I can only say that he appears to do a splendid job here. Richter of course was his own severest critic.
@@mostresticator5 I guess it's easier to identify 'not attuned' for me. I know that I have enjoyed very much de Larrocha, Uchida, Barenboim, Perrahia, Maria Joao Pires, none of whom strike me as 'not attuned,' even though they are all different.
@@mostresticator5 A pianist with a singer's intuition and compositional ability is the musician you're looking for. No classically trained pianist will have those qualities although all bring some sort of musicality to their cover of Mozart.
