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

Robert Schumann wrote his Fantasy pieces Op. 73 originally for clarinet and piano. The first edition of Schumann's Fantasy Pieces Op. 73 published in July 1849 contained not only a clarinet part but also a violin and a cello part. Since then, they have become an integral part of the Romantic repertoire for cello and piano. This edition is based on the text of the first edition, Schumann's personal copy and his composition manuscript. The notes on interpretation provide information on metronome indications, bowings, fingerings and more. - Musical text critically reviewed and compared with the sources - Cello part edited for practical performance - Notes on interpretation with comments on metronome indications, bowings, fingerings and more Instrumentation : cello and piano op. 73

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

He gave a present to me and my little Marie of a delightful lullaby composed that Christmas afternoon, Clara Schumann noted in the family diary they shared. This "Slumer Song" of 1841 Robert Schumann later included as No. 16 in his collection of Albumblätter (Album Leaves) Op. 124. The collection of twenty miniatures for piano was written over a fairly long period of time : the first piedes were written in 1832/33 and the composer started work on the last piece, the Canon, in 1845. In 1853 Schumann had the idea of brining together barious individual pieces that didn't fit in anywhere else in a collection of Albumblätter that was published in December of the same year. It is a bright bouquet of poetic little piano pieces of moderate technical difficulty : there can be no comparsion with grand works such as his G minor piano sonata of Carnaval. These musical aphorisms were not intended for the concert hall, though, but for domestic music making : this is chamber music in the true sense of the term. After unpleasant wrangling that even involved going to court to obtain permission to marry Clara Wieck, there followed a time of intense productivity for Robert Schumann : 1840 was his "year of songs" and 1841 his "year of symphonies". Their marriage, which eventually took place against the wishes of Schumann's father-in-law, and the birth of their first child on 1 September 1841 contributed much to his personal happiness. It was for Marie that the hyppy father now composed this "Slumber Song", which has enjoyed great popularity ever since : a simple and tender lullaby, written by the father as a surprise ´gift. This lullgy lends itself very well to being performed on a melodic instrument with piano accompaniment, as in thes edition for violin. Instrumentation : violin and piano op. 124/16

Berceuse - op. 124/16. violin and piano.

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.
