What's so mesmerizing about this recording in particular is those very visible contrasts, especially for the first movement, it gives off the feeling that you are in a carnival, and perhaps what Schumann did intend, where he had some time in Vienna. He brings out that four eighth-note motif so well. I love that middle part, with that bit of La Marseillaise, the way he plays that fits that particular theme so well, it sounds so witty.
Mais c'est une version absolument somptueuse ! Et qui respire, qui prend son temps... Avec des surprises et des clins d'œil... De vraies facéties, bien en accord avec le titre (Faschingsschwank 😉) Un très bon moment

Currently learning the whole thing. I certainly prefer Cziffra's lower than average tempo, especially in the Finale.
The Intermezzo... That's the Schumann I know and love
Intermezzo was one of my earliest Schumann pieces to learn.

I love Cziffra's Schumann which was also admired by Cortot.
I totally agree with you.
His Schumann is actually my favourite of his performances.
Schumann. His Fantasie Opus 17 is also a remarkable piece of musical artistry..I just love Robert Schumann, especially his Toccata Opus 7
His live accounts of these are even more exhilarating to listen to !
Bellisima interpretacion plena de matices y colores
Nice to hear how Cziffra sounds in some easy music 😂
Beautiful version!!!
Finally !

Who cannot LOVE this Intermezzo?
그저 좋기만 한 알렉산더 로베르트 슈만, 그는 왜 우울증의 고통을 받았는가
역대의 음악가중 가장 지적인 작곡가요
한없이 아름다운 멜로디의 소유자 슈만의 죽음이
못내 안타깝기만 합니다
Nice
I like richter
