Schumann: Piano Music - Yuan Sheng - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Schumann Piano Music is an album by Yuan Sheng, released in 2021. The album is a classical 2-CD.

Robert Schumann (1810-1856) was the master of the miniature, the small form, the sketch characterising a person, a landscape, a mood or an idea. The piano cycles presented on this CD offer a wide variety of emotions, from the sublime calm of a summer evening, the intimacy of a dream, the soaring of young passion to the sinister atmosphere of a pitch-dark night. In Carnaval Op. 9 and Davidsbündlertänze Op. 6 Schumann presents characters from the Commedia dell’arte, each representing different characteristics and emotions.

The present recording by Yuan Sheng is played on a Streicher fortepiano from 1846, its special sonorities and balance lending a uniquely authentic character to the performance.

Content: Davidsbündlertänze Op.6 • Carnaval Op.9 • Kinderszenen Op.15 • Faschingsschwank aus Wien Op.26 • Waldszenen Op.82.
