Robert Schumann: Dichterliebe Song Cycle (Low Voice)

Dichterliebe Op.48 is a beautiful cycle of song composed by Robert Schumann. These songs for Soprano or Tenor Voice are available here in their original keys. This Edition Peters Urtext edition provides you with an accurate realisation of the composer's original intentions with thoroughly detailed editorial markings and suggestions as edited by Hans Joachim Kohler.

Robert Schumann once described his lieder as a ”mirror image of his self”. This applies particularly to his compositions from Heinrich Heine’s “Buch der Lieder”. What began as a lyrical intermezzo then developed into “Dichterliebe” a work with which Schumann identified the ardour of his love for Clara Wieck. This work still presents an enigma to performers; how Schumann interpretes Heine’s irony in his music is often discussed. But one thing is certain: with “Dichterliebe” the composer created what is perhaps the best-loved and one of the most tightly-woven lieder cycles of the Romanticperiod. This new edition presents the work based on the first edition. It takes Schumann’s autograph score into consideration an autograph score where there have recently been discussions as to whether it should be presented as an independent alternative version. The four lieder omitted by Schumann from the printed edition are included in the appendix. High-quality Urtext edition of this well-known song cycle Appendix includes four lieder by Schumann which he did not include in the original cycle Comprehensive foreword and critical commentary (Ger/Eng)

These Schumann songs set to poems by Heinrich Heine are a deeply psychological and disturbing journey as they reflect more often than not the bitterness of unrequited love. The most cheerful songs begin as deceptively happy experiences which ultimately turn sour as they eventually reveal themselves as somewhat despairing looks at love.Written for Medium/High Voice and Piano.

Song Cycle On Poems By Heine. The ups and downs of disappointed love: who could fail to sympathize with the feelings that Schumann immortalized in his song cycle Dichterliebe after Heine? The pieces range from hopeful anticipation (?Im wunderschönen Monat Mai?) to solitary grief (?Und wüssten?s die Blumen, die kleinen?) and bitter sarcasm (?Die alten bösen Lieder?). Schumann knew what he was writing about: the cycle originated in the year of his marriage to Clara Wieck, an event that took place only after years of struggle. The tried-and-tested Henle Urtext edition by the Schumann specialist Kazuko Ozawa is now also available for singers with low voice: in close collaboration with the experienced pianist and renowned Lied accompanist Gerold Huber, we have adapted the whole cycle, including the four songs of the appendix, for medium and low voices.

Twelve Poems op. 35 Set of Songs on Texts by Kerner-As with the Dichterliebe (HN 549) Frauenliebe und Leben (HN 547) or the song cycles with texts by Heine and Eichendorff (HN 548 and 550) the Kerner Cycle op. 35 was written in 1840 Schumann?s ?Liederjahr?. Yet ithas a special place: it was composed in the time immediately following Schumann?s marriage to Clara Wieck.Schumann set a series of poems to music in November during a ?quiet week which went by withcomposing and much loving and kissing? and the cycle was complete by the turn of the year. It contains a great deal of intimate musical innuendos. The first edition of 1841 was soon followed by a second issue many of the songswere published individually and the ?Wanderlied? soon became a core piece in the repertoire. With this edition the songs in Schumann?s cycle are once again being published together in a single volume.

Includes full-length audio CD-Over the course of some three dozen volumes Amadeus Press highly acclaimed Unlocking the Masters series has drawn readers into the worlds of the greatest composers and their music. Curated pairings of critically minded introductory texts andcompanion CDs loaded with tracks selected from the worlds foremost libraries of recorded classics the series truly brings the sounds and stories of its legendary subjects to life. Its latest entry Victor Lederers Schumann: A Listeners Guide isan essential portal to the musical works of and tempestuous life of this little-understood genius. Many if not most major composers improve over the course of their careers. For Schumann however the opposite was true: plagued throughout his lifeby physical and mental illnesses he helplessly ? and consciously ? endured the gradual diminution of his prodigious talent until his premature death at age 46. Throughout Schumann: A Listeners Guide Lederer provides unflinching critiques of theweaknesses that plagued Schumanns style contrasting them with the brilliance of his earliest triumphs. This eminently accessible account explores the full spectrum of the master composers oeuvre from his popular early music and lieder to hisworks for chamber ensembles composed in 1842 to his four beloved if flawed symphonies. It also accounts for Schumanns dramatic works particularly Genoveva his only opera and Incidental Music to Byrons ?Manfred ? a bewilderingly unappreciatedmusical score. As with all volumes in the UTM series Schumann: A Listeners Guide is accompanied by a CD containing two of the masters most daring imaginative flights both explored in detail in the text: the Davidsbündlertänze for piano andDichterliebe (A Poets Love) one of the all-time greatest song cycles and works for voice. Geared toward fledglings but written with an eye turned to aficionados the book is a must-have for Schumann buffs and classical music fans young and old.
