Description

The late 1830s, though a difficult period in the personal life of Robert Schumann, saw the emergence of some very bright piano works. Here Fabrizio Chiovetta presents three of them, illustrating different aspects of the composer’s poetic style. We find Schumann free and passionate in the Fantasie, dedicated to Liszt, lyrical and intimate in the Arabeske, then simple and tender in the Kinderszenen, in which, after all the games and caprices and childhood frolics, the poet finally speaks.
