Despite the work's history, Clara Schumann herself began to associate this piece with her husband's impending madness which subsequently led to the composer's self-imprisonment in Dr. Franz Richarz's Endenich sanatorium, Schumann's Violin Sonata No. 3 in A minor stands out as a unique piece of music by the romantic composer. Instrumentation : violin and piano op. posth.

The New Robert Schumann Edition (RSA) is intended as a historico-critical edition of the collected works. They will be carefully studied and prepared according to present-day musicological and editorial techniques and presented in their entirety. Drafts, sketches and fragments, in short, everything that has come down to us as being authentically by Schumann and which, in most cases, has been deliberately preserved by him, will be brought together, evaluated as to its importance and documented in some form or other in the edition of the complete works. It is the aim of the edition to reproduce authentic texts which - having corrected scribal, copying and printing errors and eradicated later additions and other textual corruptions - will approach as closely as is possible the intention of the originals. The critical edition will form the basis of accurate performance material for Robert Schumann's work. Instrumentation : piano

On her 34th birthday, Clara Schumann was not only given a grand piano by her husband, but the latest music material as well. Among them was the one-movement Concert-Allegro with Introduction for Pianoforte and Orchestra Op. 134 in which the dominance of the solo instrument is even stronger than in the previous composition Introduction and Allegro appassionato Op. 92 which also consists of one movement only. With both works, Schumann continued the reformation of the solo concerto genre as intended. Instrumentation : piano and orchestra op. 92

With the new Urtext Primo series, the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116), Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8), works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series, with the aim of offering piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. The pieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons, but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles, music history and piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces. Volume 4 combines works of the German Romanticism by Schumann, Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Apart from well known pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Youth' and the easiest waltzes from opus 39 (in the easier version) by Brahms, the selection contains the attractive set of variations from Schumann's first Youth Sonata Op. 118/1 and Brahms' Saraband in A minor WoO 5/1 as well as a number of pleasant pieces by Theodor Kirchner which continue the tonal air of Schumann and Brahms in easy playable pieces. Instrumentation : piano

Urtext Primo - ein neues Konzept für den Einstieg Vol. 4

The title of this symphony goes back to the conductor W. J. von Wasielewski, alluding to the Rhenish cheerfulness of Düsseldorf where Robert Schumann had found a new home, although this goes against Schumann's disapproval of programme music. The symphony was created in only a few months, a fact commented on by the composer as being in harmony with Romantic aesthetics in art : 'The faster, the better. The ? ow of ideas and train of thought are more real and more natural than with long re ? ection. ' This is the ? rst time that Schumann does not start a symphony with a slow introduction. The rhythmically distinctive ? rst movement, whose sonata form and optimism correspond with the ? fth movement, is followed by three rather slow middle movements, each of them arranged clearly in ABA form. Instrumentation : Orchestra op. 97

Klavierquintet es op.44 poche

Two things in particular link Aribert Reimann with Robert Schumann, whom he much admires : their interest in the dark side of human existence and their great commitment to literature. The both took an interest in the poems by the Scottish queen Mary Stuart written at the end of her life during her imprisonment. For a long time, Reimann had cherished the wish to orchestrate the lieder by Schumann based on these poems, 'but I always lacked in courage [... ] to break up the rather barren piano part which is formally self-contained and complete in itself'. But while working on Sieben Fragmente für Orchester in 1988, he decided to take the risk. And although Schumann's music is never really touched, Reimann succeeds in bringing the deeply moving expression of the lieder even closer to the listener. Instrumentation : soprano and piano op. 135
