Schwabe/Eimmer/Rsn/Vogt - Robert Schumann: Cello Concerto - Works for Cello and Piano

Schumann's love of the cello, which developed when he learned the instrument as a young man, is expressed most fully in his Cello Concerto in A minor. It is a work marked by freshness of spirit and singing lyricism and stands as a rich example of mid-19th-century Romanticism. The series of characterful small pieces that include Funf St�cke im Volkston reveals Schumann's joy in the cello's unique lyrical capabilities. The Drei Romanzen and the Intermezzo from the F�A�E Sonata are presented here in new arrangements for cello and piano by Gabriel Schwabe.
