About

Kinderszenen, Op. 15, composed by Robert Schumann in 1838, is a renowned collection of thirteen piano pieces. Among them, Movement No. 7, Träumerei (Dreaming), stands as one of Schumann’s most cherished and recognizable compositions. Träumerei captivates listeners with its gentle and introspective melody.

Composer-Robert Schumann

Robert Schumann (1810-1856), a renowned German Romantic composer, is celebrated for his piano music, lieder (songs), and orchestral works. His piano pieces, notably dedicated to his wife Clara Schumann, a virtuoso pianist, have gained widespread recognition. Schumann’s musical journey commenced at a young age, when he began studying the piano. Influenced by the compositions of Franz Schubert and the writings of poet Jean Paul Richter, he embarked on composing his own songs.

Despite reluctantly pursuing law studies, Schumann’s true passion resided in music composition. He developed a profound connection with Clara, the daughter of his piano teacher Friedrich Wieck, and eventually overcame legal obstacles to marry her in 1840. Schumann’s compositional repertoire encompassed a plethora of piano pieces, including the notable Papillons and Carnaval and his Symphonic Studies. Expanding his horizons, he delved into orchestral compositions, creating Symphony No. 1 in B-flat Major and the Piano Concerto in A Minor.

However, Schumann’s personal life was fraught with emotional struggles and periods of mental illness. He encountered challenges in his relationship with Clara, battled severe depression, and grappled with declining mental and physical health. In 1854, he made an attempt on his own life and subsequently found solace in a private asylum in Endenich, where he spent his final years. Schumann’s legacy endures as a testament to his profound musical contributions and enduring influence on the Romantic period of classical music.
