Robert Schumann (8 June 1810 – 29 July 1856) was a German composer and influential music critic. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era. Schumann left the study of law, intending to pursue a career as a virtuoso pianist. He had been assured by his teacher Friedrich Wieck that he could become the finest pianist in Europe, but a hand injury ended this dream. Schumann then focused his musical energies on composing.

The Novelletten, Op. 21, is a set of 8 pieces for solo piano, written by Robert Schumann in 1838. The Novelletten were composed during February 1838, a period of great struggle for the composer. Schumann originally intended the eight pieces to be performed together as a group however they are often performed separately with great success. This set of pieces is an excellent example of Schumann’s keyboard style.

There’s an earlier version I uploaded with the recording of the great Spanish pianist Alicia de Larrocha. You can visit it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t57cK…

I don’t own the audios nor the scores shown in the video.
