    I saw two Richter/Schubert CDs in our local used CD store, and
    having heard so many people rave about Richter in this group,
    I am thinking about checking them out and would like to get
    some input.
    The CDs are:
    1) Schubert D850 and Weber Sonata #3, Praga (live, 1953, mono?)
    2) Schubert D665 (? - an early sonata, without the last mvt.)
    and D960, Music and Arts (from Aldeburgh, 1964).
    The CD jacket listed the first mvt. of D960 as ~ 25 minutes long,
    which is a whole 10 (+/- 1) minutes longer than my Rubinstien
    recording!! Did Rubinstien skip some repeats, or did Richter just
    take the mvt. VERY slowly?
    Thanks!
