Schubert: Moment Musical No. 3 in F minor, Op 94

I was browsing youtube (as usual, when I'm bored) and came across a clip of Horowitz playing Schubert Moment Musical No 3 in F-. This is one of my favourite pieces that I happen to know how to play the whole piece (yes, this is very unusual, for I am the worst among those who actually learn how to play piano).

I came across Horowitz clips on youtube during the weekend and shared it with JJ, another piano aficionado. Looking at Horowitz's fingers and the way he played the piano, JJ was telling me that she wished to be the piano.

Horowitz version is actually slower but his interpretation is very different. I had another rendition by Philippe Entremont, which is a little faster, and little 'intimidating' to me. I wished that my piano teacher had show me all the different rendition before I learn to play it.

Here's Horowitz's rendition



And here's Philippe Entremont rendition
