Schumann's music touches and affects me like nothing else can. For me, he is the one.

spirited allegro affetuoso, yet flowing gradually and controlled to the cadenza heard many interpretations.....must rank highly.....perhaps what Schumann intended...hrrsfrdd

to be honest, it;s not my favorite music...

i like both martha argerich and richter.... richter was probably a better pianist...but the best is dinu lipatti. hands down. for this piece at least. the emotion in it... is beyond words.

@titusbeertsen I have never heard that name before...should check it out in Wiki...

@MozartK365 Indeed, I recall that he regarded Medtner as the best composer (of his time at least).

Beautifully rendered by the Pianist and the Orchestra. It has the power to touch and move me to a subtler state of consciousness........

@truecrypt Rachmaninoff really said that? I can hardly believe it

At 6:25 begins a passage that - to my opinion - strongly resembles for instance Rachmaninoff piano concertos style, especially the third one. But also perhaps Tchaikovsky, something from the russian school.

You picked up something obvious but not often mentioned... Schumann was Tchaikovsky's favorite! And Rachmaninoff used to say that "music has ended after Schumann and Tchaikovsky"! Strong musical/spiritual connections between these composers...
