This is a performance of Horowitz playing Traumerei, by Robert Schumann. It's a piece from Scenes from Childhood and it means "Dreaming." It takes place in Moscow in 1986, and there was a lot going on in the USSR at that time, which no doubt created the emotional condition of the audience. It's a piece I well remember my father playing when I was a child.
