Sviatoslav Richter & Kirill Kondrashin play Mozart Piano Concerto no. 18 - video 1977

Sviatoslav Richter playing Mozart’s Piano Concerto no. 18, K. 456, with the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra under Kirill Kondrashin, live in Moscow in 1977. They encored the third movement. Timing below. Watch for Richter handing out flowers at the end of the concerto -- which reminds me of his quote, ’Put a small piano in a truck and drive out on country roads; take time to discover new scenery; stop in a pretty place where there is a good church; unload the piano and tell the residents; give a concert; offer flowers to the people who have been so kind as to attend; leave again.’ 00:00 - 1st mvt 12:11 - 2nd mvt 20:54 - 3rd mvt 30:31 - encore - 3rd mvt Святослав Рихтер - Моцарт - Концерт для фортепиано с оркестром - Кирилл Кондрашин
