The songs of Robert Schumann

Más información sobre el libro

This book looks at each of Schumann's 246 songs and provides a translation, a commentary and notes on each. What emerges is a carefully documented history of Schumann's songwriting art - sources and original texts are traced and dated, recurring themes are related vividly to the song-writer's life. For this edition, Eric Sams had added an appendix which throws new light on the controversy surrounding Schumann's health.
