Clara Schumann's Piano Notebook. This book presents seven piano solos that represent the wonderful variety of compositions by Clara Schumann. The brilliant ?Polonaise? was composed and performed by Clara as a child prodigy. The enchanting ?Prelude, Op. 16, No. 2?, and ?Romance, Op. 21. No.2? are both beautiful and suitable for many occasions. The joyful ?Mazurka? makes a great recital piece as well as ?Scherzo? in C minor. ?Nocturne in F, Op. 6, No. 2" is one of the most beautifully written nocturnes. Chopin once told Clara that she was the only woman in Germany that could play his music. She may have been inspired to compose this piece after performing many of Chopin's works in her concerts. The final piece in this collection of Clara Schumann?s Piano Notebook is her ?Theme and Variations?, which she dedicated to Robert Schumann. Robert composed and published many variations of his own on Clara's theme. Her own variations remained unknown until recently. These variations are very interesting, and the theme is easily recognizable throughout. ?Theme and Variations? truly showcases Clara?s unique sense of creativity. These piano selections are presented as examples of Clara Schumann's legacy?a great composer of the 19th century. Her music is timeless and must be preserved for future generations of pianists. This collection will be valuable for recitals, programs and your own enjoyment.

Edited by Clara Schumann-Fifteen works including 'Symphonic Etudes Op. 13' 'Fantasy In C Major Op. 17' and 'Intermezzi Op. 4'.

Clara Schumann's dramatic setting of the poem Lorelei was a birthday gift to her husband Robert in 1843. Her mastery of the keyboard is evident in this exciting and descriptive accompaniment that features driving eighth-note figures reminiscent of Schubert's Erlkönig.

Pour la présente édition, l'éditeur s'est servi des manuscrits autographes pour les pièces 1, 6 et 7, de la première édition et, en cas de doute d'interprétation, de la deuxième édition. Les Scènes d'enfants, composées en 1838, font partie de cette période où Schumann écrit exclusivement pour le piano solo. Avant ces pièces pour enfants , certaines grandes couvres ont vu le jour: Le Carnaval (opus 9), Les Davidsbündlertânze, Fantaisie (opus 17), etc. Les Scènes d'enfants sont des regards jetés en arrière par un adulte sur sa propre enfance, des souvenirs pour les personnes qui ont grandi , écrit Schumann à Clara. OEuvre pleine de poésie, de tendresse, de candeur, d'intimité exquise, de grâce juvénile, de virile tendresse, pages apparemment simples mais chargées de tous ces rêves dont veut se délivrer un adulte à la recherche du temps perdu de son enfance. Robert écrit à Clara: Les qualités qui donnent leur prix à cette musique ne dépendent que d'une grâce toute simple, naturelle et sans apprêt. Le 17 mars 1838, Schumann écrit encore à Clara: Est-ce une réponse à ce que tu m'écrivis un jour, tu me fais parfois l'impression d'un enfant, s'il en est ainsi, tu verras que des ailes ont poussé à cet enfant car j'ai écrit plus de trente petites pièces et j'en ai choisi une douzaine que je réunirai sous le nom de Scènes Enfantines. Tu prendras sans doute plaisir à les jouer, mais il te faudra oublier que tu es une virtuose. Treize pièces ont été retenues parmi les trente pour l'opus 15 - les autres pièces trouvèrent place dans l'albumblätter ou dans Bunte Blätter. Schumann donne, pour la plupart de ses oeuvres, les indications de tempo en allemand. Dans l'opus 15, les indications sont données en tempos métronomiques, sauf dans la pièce n° 11. Les tempos indiqués en tête de chaque pièce sont de Robert Schumann et ceux indiqués en fin sont de Clara Schumann. Ils figurent dans la deuxième édition. L'interprète choisira parmi ces différentes indications métronomiques le tempo qu'il jugera le mieux adapté au caractère de ces pièces.

Robert Schumann's Kreisleriana for piano is a cycle of eight contrasting pieces composed in 1838. The work belongs to one of Schumann's most creative periods. It was influenced by the writings of author E. T. A. Hoffmann and was inspired by Schumann's love for his wife, Clara. The current edition has been thoroughly researched, with comparisons made between all early sources. The 1850 second edition has been used as the primary source, which includes revisions made by Schumann and reflects his final intentions. Discrepancies with the first edition (1838), third edition (1858), and various Clara Schumann editions have been discussed in critical notes. Prefatory matter discusses the genesis of Kreisleriana, the relationship between Hoffmann's writings and Schumann's journalism and compositions, and the early champions and performers of this masterwork. Also included are discussions of the form of each piece and helpful performance suggestions. Editorial pedaling and fingering suggestions have been provided to facilitate learning and performance.Charles Timbrell is Professor of Music and Coordinator of Keyboard Studies at Howard University in Washington, D.C., where he teaches piano, piano literature, and piano pedagogy. He also maintains an active career as a performer, author, lecturer, and adjudicator. / Piano
