Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856) was a seminal German composer and esteemed
music critic. When his piano teacher assured him that the could be the
most accomplished piano virtuoso in Europe, he dedicated his energies to
this end. However, a severe injury to his hand meant that his dream
could never be realised. Instead, Schumann focused on composing. He
chiefly wrote compositions for the piano until 1840, at which time he
began branching out, composing for orchestra and writing symphonies,
operas, and other choral and chamber pieces. Some of his most famous
compositions include: " Kinderszenen", "Album für die Jugend",
"Blumenstück", and the "Sonatas" and "Albumblätter". Today, Schumann is
generally considered to have been one of the most important composers
during the Romantic era. This book contains the complete score for
Robert Schumann's 1851 piano composition, "Waldszenen, Op.82". Classic
