There's a great anecdote about this piece. Schubert, an accomplished pianist in addition to being a brilliant composer, could play most of his own work. But supposedly, when playing this piece, he slammed his hands on the keys and exclaimed "let the devil play it; it's too hard for me!"

I believe that Sviatoslav Richter is at the height of his powers here. This performance of "Der Wanderer" is undoubtedly my favorite, a colossus among others in the field. I agree that it is rather austere in parts; though I believe that Richter's affinity for and scrupulous interpretation of this music is beyond compare.

@@pamelafrancis4476 Yes, but for me Brendel is usually too delicate and "labored." He doesn't have the power combined with sweetness that Richter has. I want to say it has to do with "authority." There is a way in which Richter "owns" this piece.

I like Meredith's expression about 'stern and formidable in a Soviet sort of way' no less the pun by accidental(?) spelling of 'of coarse supreme technical mastery' which exemplifies the inescapable fact that we are the products of our origins and conditioning- whatever we think of them- however we struggle to rise above them, cast them away, and the genius of Richter, his paradox, harsh and tender,strident and svelte, is anchored in just this tension and troubled dilemma, a genus that holds onto him from those difficult days. That said Schubert suits him well-in all respects.

Murray Perahia´s performance in KZfaq is a bit less passionate, but probably for this I find it clearer, with very neat sound even in the most difficult and quick passages, and the overall result is equilibrium. To me equals Richter, who astounds me in his incredibly ability to put at the same time fire and passion always perfectly controlled with the coldest perfection (I imagine only russians can do this so easily). I must say that I´m not a pianist, just a classic music lover. Anyway, Perahia will please you all for sure!

As peerless on the modern piano as Richter is for Schubert, even he can't get the accents at 00:00, and to a lesser extent, 12:34 to sound properly like accents, which is a fault of the modern piano's action. Sofronitsky's reading is more like it: watch?v=GoYqZVkSNJ8&list=PL6zi6-KJDvZAacu_a7yhopJhbvR3dLI_S

Robey Thomas He was influenced by both, and especially Beethoven, no doubt. He just lacked ready access to orchestras needed to write concerti; ever wonder why he wrote so much for piano duet, which can be easily performed in a domestic setting? His following outside of a close circle of friends was limited, at a time when Beethoven, Hummel (and other virtuosi), and Rossini (*groan*) were all the rage in Vienna. Sad, sad life...

Robey Thomas yw. I haven't mentioned some of the not-so-subtle quotations/evocations of Beethoven in Schubert's work: 1) "Great" Symphony Finale quotes "Ode to Joy" in the development's theme; the slow movement of the Great is also in the same key as that of Beethoven's 7th, and is also highly rhythmic 2) Piano Sonata D. 960 Finale opens with the same tonal modulation as that of Beethoven's Op 130 String Quartet 3) Piano Sonata D. 958 opens with what seems a verbatim quotation of Beethoven's Thirty-two variations, WoO 80

And he sometimes cuts phrases in 2nd movment-which seems not musical at all. Also I can see some unclean notes which have no rhythm in it when he rushes. And I can’t find any of these messed up things in Richter’s performance. Instead, Richter has rich and beautiful tone through the whole piece which Karolyi doesn’t have. And also Richter’s performance is rhythmical, refined rather than rushed. That is the fact.
