D'Après Le Manuscrit Autographe / Urtext Edition. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. Les ' scènes de la forêt ' (Waldszenen, op.82) ont été composées à Dresde,du 29 décembre 1848 au 6 Janvier 1849. Si l'on excepte l'album pour la jeunesse op. 68, Schumann avait délaissé le piano presque complètement depuis le ' Carnaval de Vienne op 26 ' et les ' Romances op 28 ' composées en 1839. À cette époque, Schumann est déjà tout à fait conscient des troubles qui le gagnent et l'envahissent peu à peu. ' Créer tant qu'il fera jour ' tel est sa devise. / Niveau : Moyen / Classique (1760-1900) / Date parution : 2008-09-01/ Répertoire / Piano
