"Faschinksschwank aus Wien" and not aus Wein ;)

Thank you! Just fixed it!

The scherzino is one of my favourate pieces of music. I especially liked this interpretation-excluding some minor mistakes it was what it should be. It might even beat richters, and don't get me wrong, I love richter. Later on I'd like the middle voice more subtle, but everything else was very very good. Thank you for this performance.

Still, a year later, a savage monster of a performance. May even beat out Richter and Vorraber. I love it. It rips a new hole in Schumann's musical fabric

(I listen only to 4:48 on): Rather sensational performance, even when compared with Ashkenazy and Arrau. Nothing diffident about Slava Levin's bass accents at 5:17, 5:26, 5:49 and 5:58. Huge interpretation, Bravo!

What a powerful performance, it brings tears to my eyes.
