I am very impressed. I love Schumann and what I like most about him is the character he put into all his music, even in short movements of a larger work like this. You capture a different character in every single bit of this multi-movement work and in this way manage to tell an 18-min. story that is coherent yet still has all the episodes separate from another. Great job!

My favorite Schumann piece and you did it justice, nice work !
Depressing the pedal on an out of tune acoustic piano and playing does not result in tonal color control or add interest, it's called obnoxious.
