Over Robert Schumann

Robert Schumann, geboren in 1810, was een invloedrijke Duitse componist, pianist en muziekcriticus uit de romantische periode. Zijn muziek omvat een breed scala aan genres, waaronder pianomuziek, liederen en orkestwerken, en vangt de essentie van de romantische tijdgeest perfect in. Samen met zijn echtgenote Clara Schumann, eveneens een talentvolle componiste en pianist, vormde hij een van de meest geliefde muzikale koppels uit de 19e eeuw. Schumanns composities, die vaak intens en emotioneel geladen zijn, blijven vandaag de dag een inspiratiebron voor zowel musici als muziekminnaren.
