Doesn't sound like Stephen Bishop (-Kovacevich), Stephanie's father, comes out too well either.
Schumann is my favorite German composer too, and I think Martha's recording of Kreisleriana is great. (However I have a memory of Viktoria Postnikova's performance of this work on a Melodiya/EMI LP that I think I may have liked even more. I do not know of a CD reissue of this performance - maybe in Japan, but I must have missed it.)
Anyway, once the blu-ray of Stephanie's documentary gets here, I can compare notes with you! ;-)
