Schumann: Dedication
December 01, 2007 09:00 - 3 minutes - 2.79 MBThis piece is a bit deceiving...

Schumann: Dreaming
December 01, 2007 09:00 - 2 minutes - 2.18 MBI will never forget watching Vladmir Horowitz's performance of this in his famous Moscow concert.

Bach: Invention No. 8 in F Major

Schumann: Foreign Lands and People - from Kinderszenen
December 01, 2007 09:00 - 1 minute - 2.29 MBThis is from the "Scenes from Childhood" set of works that Schumann composed. This is one that I always enjoyed playing and experimenting with the pedalling.
