I think this version is one of the best Toccatas ever heard.
It has a lot of strength and clarity at the same time. The tempo is as quick as Horowitz or Ciffra. As powerful as richters version but not so brutal in sound.

Great! This is real young man's playing! I think the mature Gilels would have played it differently. (That's not a criticism, after all, Schumann was a young man when he wrote it).

I enjoyed this dry sound. One could almost see those little White dampers rushing about their business inside the piano. Fine performance too.

sicuramente affascinante e grande tecnica ma non comparabile a cziffra lui e' il piu' grande e se sceglie e sentite dei pezzi meno veloci di altri e' solo perche' una sua scelta per renere il pezzo piu' vivibile,dove si puo' esagerare cn la ve,liocita' lo fa...guardate il video cziffra cray improv with etude come seconda copmposizione l etude n 1 di chopin al limite della velocita' umana ma sempre chiara e dal volo del calabrone dove si ricrea proprio il calabrone come se ci foss davvero

Gilels is such a true artist... Possibly my favorite pianist. He does nothing half way.

@uhartchristian richter was not as young when he recored this pièce^^

I can take a guess that this is the hardest piano piece of all time. Its just relentless. I love it :)

By far the best I've heard. This moved me with its passionate, free, enthusiastic, and youthful energy. I've never heard anyone play this in a non-mechanical manner...until now.

Are you conducting a comparative research on Schumann's Toccata or something? :) The four you posted so far are amazing, but this one is my personal favorite.
