Piano Street Magazine:
The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

This is the first time I've heard this etude. I thought it was really beautiful. I especially loved the part from 1:15 from 1:45 with the middle voice. It'll probably go down as one of my favorite piano passages. It sounds so lush!

Yeah! :) The whole etude is filled with inner voices which I think Richter brings the best :D Such a beautiful and cool piece and one of my favorites :)

Very convincing!

Always nice watching someone skilled who clearly cares about the music they're playing.

I'm sorry, but I can't get over the 12th you managed to play with your LH at 0:36...

You LUCKY BASTARD!!!

I can barely get a 10th to sound cleanly.

I've listened to a bunch of other versions of this piece, but keep coming back for the passage around 1:15. I really like the way the middle voice was initially emphasized, then draws into the background and gets "lost", and the phrase ultimately ends with the busy part around 1:35.
