Bartók PC2 & Britten PC - Richter

It is difficult to imagine a discography as rich and important 

and at the same time as disordered as that of Sviatoslav Richter, 

scattered on dozens of labels, 

moreover with frequent mistakes in the dates :/

 

As in this case.

Misdated on the cover, Bartók PC2 is the same (may 6, 1967)

published on Brilliant, Russian Revelation and Yedang.

The true rarity is Britten, live in Aldeburgh (june 18, 1967)

with the composer on the podium:

this should be the only CD release.
