"Orchestral solidity of sound makes the first movements immediately impressive. But the true scaling of heights comes in the slow movement of the C major - a colossal psychodrama here and, unexpectedly, in the shadowy third movement of the E flat. Only a select few pianists are so in touch with Beethoven the awe-inspirer; and of those is there any who can match Richter for sustained intensity and will-power?" (Gramophone)
