Inspired by Nightklavier I think I'll kick this one off with Liszt's sight reading perfectly through Grieg's piano concerto from the manuscript in front of the incredulous composer. Of more recent musicians, Richter was said by his teacher Neuhauss to be able to sight read anything perfectly and give a first rate musical performance of it!
