Hans Richter-Haaser ∙ German Radio Recordings 1950-1959

9.99 €

Hans Richter-Haaser never made it to the ‘big time’. Beethoven, Brahms, Mozart and Haydn were Richter-Haaser’s bread and butter. He was firmly and unmistakably in that tradition: distinctively Germanic, serious, deeply respectful of the music. Music making was, to him, a matter of discovering the soul in the music. This disc presents pianist Hans Richter-Haaser’s German radio broadcast in 1950s and the performances are of ‘noble simplicity and quiet grandeur’. None of these radio performances have been published before.
