其实席夫的评论远没有楼主翻译的那么激烈,随便翻译一下
“Alfred Brendel is the only pianist who has regularly programmed, performed and recorded much of it on a very high level. Sviatoslav Richter, one of the greatest artists, played a lot of Haydn, but I do not think that he contributes greatly to our understanding of the composer. Nor is Haydn among Richter's strongest performances. (Russian culture and Viennese Classicism are very remote from each other, and it is quite absurd how people in the West are fascinated by Russian musicians' maltreatment of the classics.)”
“阿尔弗雷德·布伦德尔是唯一一位经常将其放进节目单,并以极高水准录制了大部分海顿奏鸣曲的钢琴家。斯维亚托斯夫拉·里赫特,最伟大的艺术家之一,演奏了大量的海顿钢琴奏鸣曲,但我认为里赫特的演奏对我们理解海顿没有多大帮助。海顿也不是里赫特的强项。(俄国文化和维也纳古典主义之间的差距很大,而西方听众居然还痴迷于俄国音乐家对古典作品的错误处理,真是太荒谬了)”
