Description: An impressive debut CD from a charismatic young pianist with a passion for Schumann. This new recording presents some of Schumann’s lesser known piano works: the Allegro Op. 8, Drei Romanzen Op. 28, the late Gesänge der Frühe, the Scherzo, Gigue, Romanze und Fughette Op. 32 and the famous Toccata Op. 7. 🎵 Purchase or streaming (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Naxos, Presto): pianoclassics.lnk.to/SchumannPianoID 💎 More Information: piano-classics.com/articles/s/schumann-piano-music-1 🎬🎮 These tracks are available for sync licensing in videos, films, tv-shows, games, advertising and more.

She had been studying the instrument since the age of six and playing in public since the age of seven, but these still underrated pieces of Schumann set her on a path that has since taken her past degrees at conservatoires in Milan and London, and a Wigmore Hall recital debut in 2016. There is a certain inevitability to the presence of Schumann on her debut CD – and not any Schumann, a standardrunthrough of Carnaval, Papillons and Arabesques, but much less familiar pieces that test the expressive reflexes of the most dedicated Schumann interpreter. Neglected ever since Schumann composed it during his troublesome stay in Vienna (1838-1839), while away from but passionately attached to Clara, the collection of Scherzo, Gigue, Romanze und Fughette Op.32 was curiously never performed as a set during Schumann’s lifetime. Written in 1839, the Three Romances Op.28 also suffered a troubled birth, as a Christmas present to Clara – the two now engaged – but one which he did not value sufficiently to dedicate to her. Yet under the hands of an interpreter as sympathetic as Costanza Principe, these pieces surge and swell with the composer’s uniquely impassioned and vulnerable voice. She also includes pieces from the opposite ends of Schumann’s career: the tumultuous Allegro Op.8, a Beethovenian flexing of pianistic muscle from the 21-year-old composer; and the poignant collection of Gesänge der Frühe Op.133, composed five months before his attempted suicide and confinement within the asylum at Endenich. ‘Dawn-songs,’ Clara called them, ‘very original as always but hard to understand, their tone is so very strange.’ Inflected by a world-weary melancholy, as it may seem in retrospect, but with decades of writing for the piano distilled into a new simplicity of idiom. Robert Schumann (1810-1856) was one of the most original piano composers of the 19th century. Trained as a pianist himself he created his own sound world in which he gave free reign to his often unbridled fantasy and imagination. His first 23 opus numbers are exclusively for piano solo. Schumann was the master of the miniature, the small form, the sketch characterising a person, a landscape, a mood or an idea. In his music he expresses the duality of his own romantic nature: his dreamy, introspective and lyrical side, against his fiery and passionate side. 👉 Social media links: Facebook: PianoClassics.lnk.to/FacebookID Spotify: PianoClassics.lnk.to/SpotifyID Brilliant Classics: Facebook: brilliant-classics.lnk.to/FacebookID Spotify: brilliant-classics.lnk.to/SpotifyID Instagram: brilliant-classics.lnk.to/InstagramID TikTok: brilliant-classics.lnk.to/TikTokID Tracklist: 0:00:00 Allegro in B Minor, Op .8 0:12:43 Romanze No. 1 in B-Flat Minor, Op. 28 0:16:59 Romanze No. 2 in F-Sharp Major, Op. 28 0:21:24 Romanze No. 3 in B Major, Op. 28 0:29:28 Toccata in C Major, Op. 7: I.
