Nikolai Lugansky - Schumann, Toccata in C major

[@calebhu6383]

Very happy for this recording without the distortion. One of the best Schumann Toccatas out there.

[@anhducduong0105]

Yess.

[@erwinschulhoff4464]

Is that why you put it at the top of your playlist?

Потрясающая интерпретация труднейшего произведения Шумана. Николай Луганский - многогранный, разноплановый исполнитель всех жанров музыки. Из многих пианистов, сыгравших токкату, Луганский лучший!

[@jungwirthmartin]

Finally version without any technical problem, genius Lugansky at work! What more to say🙂.

Veliki Luganski...sve sto svira ,svira fantasticno...jedno od najboljih izvodjenja Schumann.Toccate,za mene,naravno... Bravo maestro!❤️💐👏

[@한영자-b2x]

I know it is the most difficult piece of piano work composed by Schumann, but I couldn't help but admire Lugansky's excellent technique and perfect interpretation while listening to it.

[@Tizohip]

beautifull version

[@성태규-x3x]

He has perfect technique!!! Wonderful lugansky...

[@jinwoobae7555]

BRAVO...

[@Rachlimninoff]

WOW

[@ejb7969]

5:37 The only one who gets these 2-fisted chords right and clean. His lack of pedal makes many passages clear that most others blur into mush. (But in a few places a little whiff of pedal wouldn't hurt.)

3:49 best part

[@calebhu6383]

3:36

[@calebhu6383]

3:20, 4:57

[@republiccooper]

Very different from Argerich's, but both perfect in different ways.

[@calebhu6383]

Argerich's has a frightening technical capacity, while Lugansky's voicing is supreme.

[@ejb7969]

Yes, her 1960 recording is frightening all right. It's a real horror show in spots. She even has a little breakdown near the end.

[@jhhjhhjhhjhhjhh]

I thought Pogorellich's version was the best, but I think it's more ecstatic than that.

[@icewingsky]

These 2 are the best versions, each one in its own way.

[@Liborun]

So good! I think it's edited, but still great!

[@ario2264]

I don't understand why you would want to rush/skip through the obvious emotional climaxes of the piece.

[@KristinaShatuho]

Please, please, can you post sonata and symphonic etudes form this album?! I had it on iTunes but they discontinued this CD and I love those recordings!

[@EnchantedWanderer]

I adore them too, they are unbearably beautiful. Yes, I will post them sometime during May.

[@KristinaShatuho]

@@EnchantedWanderer Thank you so much! I have been looking for this CD everywhere and could not find it. Thank you for uploading Nikolai's recordings, he is my favorite pianist.

[@svetikivanova2988]

A final acceleration in coda is too much. Although, I know that Schumann wrote it.
