Robert Schumann, Kinderszenen, Op.15 (Scenes from Childhood) 7. Träumerei
Oleg Volkov, piano
The Washington Post wrote about Volkov's performance of this piece on the Horowitz' Steinway Grand: "But the best work of the evening was the second encore, Schumann's "Trauemerei," played with a gentleness and warmth enhanced by the fine acoustics of the GMU Center for the Arts, a sensitivity and flexibility of phrasing that approached the expressiveness of a human voice. This number was worth the long drive from downtown Washington."
