The perfect combination of maturity...and a young man's energy. A superb performance in every way - his cantabile is outstanding and his ability to deal with the differing notes-per-bar in each hand is inspiring. More please, from any concert that he plays in. Thankyou to the Arthur Rubinstein awards for this.
We are very happy to announce that the 14th Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition will be streamed live! The competition is being held on the 13th of May through the 29th, and this year we are holding an especially joyful celebration: the competition's 40th anniversary!

What a gifted and blessed pianist! I really enjoyed listening to this, before only loved it with the great Svjatoslav Richter and thought nobody else could play it well. I was wrong …
I have read that supposedly Schumann when he wrote this lacked the everyday pianistic experience (due to his finger injury) to realize that the end of the second movement was inordinately difficult
Wow, the jumps around 19:27 are extremely fast and accurate! A very solid performance, though I think Pletnev's is more sweeping and mystic, close to perfection to me.
Wonderful accuracy in the coda of the march! Wish he had played the original ending written by Schumann and rediscovered by Charles Rosen and Andras Schiff.
He did well. But he didnt play strong enough at the beginnig and I think he missed a couple of times,but maybe it is just me because I am used to listen this opus from other permorfers
Complaining about facial expressions of musicians is the same as complaning about youtube commenters (that complain about the facial expressions of musicians) - Irrelevant.
@David Rogoff, nice playing but.....but is way too wet, always emoting without pause, like someone continuously talking, but there is no story telling, no architectural build and no sense of climax, his phrasings sound the same and are not well defined. His playing is nice for background music though.
I pity the energy spent playing that on the piano, and working. A very famous Schuman bullshit. It's not worth tearing yourself apart for prestige. There is no good interpretation of a bad thing. Walter Gieseking plays great, but the composition sucks. It doesn't feel anything.

Very moving. Throughout the performance good dynamic shadings and emotional control. really enjoyed. Thank you for the video.
that really portrays melancholy as it is...you could easily notice not only on the interpretation but on the passion from the performer...
A very passionate and wonderful performance. Well done !
I really like this performance. He is such a musician who truly understands Schumann.
Unbelievable playing of the coda of the second movement.
Beautiful rendition of this masterpiece
Превосходный музыкант и пианист !!❤
I hope I can see him in concert one day; love his performances, also of the Beethoven sonata at the Iturbe competition
What a gifted and blessed pianist! I really enjoyed listening to this, before only loved it with the great Svjatoslav Richter and thought nobody else could play it well. I was wrong …
Einfach super gespielt!!! Danke.
a very mature insight wich brough a fresh breeze to a well known piece in the piano repertoire.a pianist to be looked for in the future.
he plays superb, so emotional, brings shumann's beauty
Good music, well played. Thanks.
Beautiful tone and emotional depth!!!!

They say that back then only Liszt was able to play it without struggling.
Просто потрясающе! Слушала и смотрела, затаив дыханье.
Wow, the jumps around 19:27 are extremely fast and accurate! A very solid performance, though I think Pletnev's is more sweeping and mystic, close to perfection to me.
I do like Pletnev's for SURE... but this is kind of spectacular...
Very beautiful!
Bravo!!!!
Woooow!!!coooool!!!:)))))
No sabría yo decir si esta es la mejor interpretación, pero si le aseguro que es la que más me gusta
Wonderful accuracy in the coda of the march! Wish he had played the original ending written by Schumann and rediscovered by Charles Rosen and Andras Schiff.
A very good performance
Ausgezeichnete Einspielung!!!!
Good performing!!!
Perhaps you could show us how its done.I think he's great.
Excelente!
Fantastico.
It's a Schumann study on love and melancholy.
Zdorovo igraet
Damn that person who coughed at the end.
Who cares about his face ? It doesn't matter how does he feel the music, just enjoy the interpretation.
He did well. But he didnt play strong enough at the beginnig and I think he missed a couple of times,but maybe it is just me because I am used to listen this opus from other permorfers

That's all you have to say about the performance?
Typical Schumann: Chop cha’chop cha’chop cha’chop
a great work? I'm not sure..but it has it's moments. Schumann wrote his best using small forms.
I take it you are blind
what is this whispering sound 'ja ja ja..'? very annoying sound
him xD

Agreed - there are times when he sounds like he's rushing through the notes
Fred MyOpinion Do you prefer Evgeny Kissin's playing of this piece?
facial expressions are distracting
Too forced. His face is too dramatic, better to be still.
