RICHTER’S FAIRYTALE offers insight into the life of Sviatoslav Richter (1915-1997), one of the greatest Soviet pianists in music history. The life of this German-Russian piano virtuoso

was marked by an escape from the reality of the Stalinist regime into the boundless and unrestricted world of music.

"Politics holds no interest for me," Richter used to say. However, his fate was intertwined with it: Richter's father was executed due to false accusations, his mother fled with the retreating German troops to Germany, and Richter himself, narrowly avoiding arrest, played at Stalin's funeral.
