SKU: S9.Q11267

The 19th century was not only the era of great forms, monumental symphonies and melodious sonatas, no, the Romantic composers proved to be versatile and highly imaginative on the field of little music pieces as well. Robert Schumann was a master of the character piece for "his" instrument, the piano. From thirty of such poetic miniatures, he selected thirteen in 1838 for his 'Scenes of Childhood', opus 15, the seventh, i.e. the one right in the middle, being 'Dreaming', the most famous among Schumann's compositions. It is a romantic gem the catchy melody of which will not get out of one's head. The beautiful setting contained in the present edition can be played also in a version for cello quartet for ensemble playing.

En 1838, Schumann fit, pour les "Scènes d’enfants” op. 15, une sélection parmi trente petites miniatures. À la septième place, nous trouvons la "Rêverie”, la plus connue de toutes ses pièces. C’est un joyau dont la mélodie prenante ne veut pas nous sortir de la tête. La présente édition invite les quatuors de violoncelles à jouer cette magnifique composition.
