It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Movements that work

174.131.160.51

Your comments about the last movement of this Fantasy remind me of my own experiences reviewing various performances of Beethoven's Appassionata Sonata.

That last movement of the Beethoven is tricky IMO. So many performances are fine in the first two movements. As it is, I've compromised with my reference to get the best out of all three movements. Some of Beethoven's music is really beyond the abilities of most pianists, even very good ones, IMO. Perhaps, some of Schumann's piano works are the same. This is my first deep plunge into Schumann. I have several versions of the symphonies, of course, and a few piano works. I actually used to view him as a minor composer. But hey, where would Wagner have been without Schumann?
