  • surprisingly slow tempo. i guess it was the ultra-romantic style of the time.

  • Interesting point. Bolet also took it at a similar tempo, as did Arrau, Lympany, to name a few.

  • I took this tempo in my performance many years ago (more out of necessity than choice---watch some of my videos and you'll know what I mean) and the audience booed. I guess you have to be Gilels or Arrau to get away with it.

  • too slow... bit of boring... sorry to say it, i like Gilels but for my taste this movement is nicer when it's played faster

  • humm where is the seconde mouvement?

  • too slow, but who cares its so awesome

  • @jabsomdoc not so surprising, he simply adheres to Schumannns metronome marking.

  • can you please post the second mouvement? thanks!

  • Surprisingly slow tempo at the beginning, but I think soon gets close to a more "standard" tempo.

    Absotlutely amazing interpretation!

  • @Pianist54d I agree with my heart and my soul.

  • Something that really irritates me is ignorant Americans who prefer to talk about the music rather than listen to it and appreciate it... 'AgnesRegina' and no, you are not a queen
