Beethoven: Diabelli Variations - Mozart: Violin Sonata, K. 379 / Richter, Kagan

Often referred to as the most monumental and greatest of Beethoven’s piano works, this performance by Sviatoslav Richter of the Diabelli Variations is one of the most important successes in the whole of Richter’s discography. This important re-issue is coupled with one of Mozart’s favorite violin sonatas with Richter’s compatriot Oleg Kagan where the two of them show their love of chamber music playing with stupendous character and commitment.
