Recommended for Katchen's virtuosity!
Good but the DSD sound would have been better with a better source I think. As good but not better than the LP version.
The sound is excellent

You can do better
Sorry, there are so many great recorded Rach 2's about - Janis, Rubinstein, Hough, Ashkenazy and Van Cliburn leap to mind - that competitors need to offer great sonics and performance to have a chance of competing. This one flunks on both counts, I'm afraid, and is therefore a non-starter.
Kitchen Rach 2
Julius Kitchen is one of my heroes. This is another great remastering, but the performance doesn't quite match up to Richter.
