Robert Schumann: Seven Piano Pieces In Fughetta Form Op.126 - Urtext

Beskrivning

In response to failures, Schumann once again turned more to composing during his time in Düsseldorf. He wrote many new works – also ones for the Piano for which he had only written a few pieces after his first years of composing.

Bach's music played an important role in the Schumanns' house at the time: this is mirrored in the fact that Schumann turned to baroque forms again. However, he wanted his fugues to be understood as character pieces, just in a stricter form".

The Piano Pieces in Fughetta Form op. 126, published in Henle's catalogue for the first time, unite the strict formal demands with romantic expression in a masterly manner."
