About "Schumann: Carnaval, Op. 9: No. 3, Arlequin" by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli
Arlequin leaps into the carnival—a trickster in motley, all sharp angles and sudden stops. Michelangeli’s touch is percussive yet elastic, the rhythm a series of near-misses. Beneath the acrobatics, a hint of menace: the jester who knows too much. Playful, but watch your back.
