Are most (if not all) comments blind to see how pretty (or beautiful), graceful, elegant the pianist is? "Beauty is in the eyes of beholder" applies here? I sincerely wish her great and fulfilling career.
I feel most performances of this piece make the mistake of treating it like Chopin, as a piece of delicate craftsmanship whose edges are sanded down. This performance is one of the few that demonstrates the extremes of Schumann's wild imagination and flits between them at a dime. The Aveu was absolutely exquisite.
