Robert Schumann.
Complete Solo Piano Works, Volume XII
Bunte Blatter, opus 99.
4 Fugen, opus 72.
Vier Marsche, opus 76.
Scherzo in F major, WoO.
Allegro, opus 8.
Jorg Demus, Piano.


Wonderful interpretations! Jorg Demus is a great performer, and has a real feel for Schumann, brings to it the right proportions, and elan.
Nimble fingers, fully aware of Schumann's emotional power.
Really, well performed.

And as another plus you can always replace it with chainsaw and play some mean Stockhausen.

No, I haven't seen that. Doubt anyone saw it beyond authors closest family members (and them probably not of their own free will)

Cherkassy playing Franck (P,C &F)

Speaking of which.. any other pianists to look for in this piece? I already have Cherkassy, Sokolov, Richter and Bolet.
