Both of these performances of Schumann's "Of Foreign Lands and Peoples" are shades of a similar interpretation: one stemming from a feeling of nostalgia and a longing for simplicity of times past. The first is a more straightforward and simple approach to this emotional state. The second shows more variation in emotion from phrase to phrase, while still maintaining a similar underpinning as the first. I, personally, don't emotionally connect with a faster tempo like you'll hear from some pianists. And if you're familiar with the typical metronome marking of Q = 108 on most scores, you'll have to check out my course on this piece to find out just why that's very likely incorrect.
