Yes, quite amazing.
But I wish they would stop changing the numbers of some pieces. It tends to get a bit confusing. Back when I was in college (50+ years ago), this was called the Sonata #3. In fact, that is how my copies of the score are labeled.
Also, I have a very old LP of the Dvorak Symphony #9. But, back then, it was called the Symphony #5.
I just don't know WHAT to think, anymore!
It's hell getting old. :))

I really do not know which one to listen? Gilels or Richter in this piece. Richter has his raw playing which is very deep and never misses his poetic finesse. On the other hand Gilels is much more calmer with his golden tone and never going overboard thus a bit less exciting in that manner. Nevertheless there are other great pianists in this piece, Cortot, Yudina etc.

Girly? Argerich? Martha Argerich? You got to be kidding, I laughed so hard I nearly fell off of my chair..
That woman will bury most pianists under the table with her force.

Girly, eh? Well, personally I reckon her playing has got more balls than that of many male pianists! She slaps and punches the keys like a champion boxer, but can be tender when it is necessary. I'm willing to wager that in a blind test not many people would ever guess that it was a 'girl' playing :)

Truly amazing!
But I could never understand why everyone that plays this so amazingly like this guy does tends to rush the ending a little bit.

You probably talking about coda of the 1st movement 5:00 - 5:27
The "rush" is a part of composer's plan.
Schumann left very interesting remarks there: "fast", then "as fast as possible" and after that "FASTER", i.e. faster than possible. ;)
