Who was "Pauline, Countess of Abegg", the dedicatee of the first edition? Nowadays it is known that the matter revolves around a romantic mystification of the name of Meta Abegg, a friend from Schumann's youth, whose surname inspired Schumann to a theme on A-B-E-G-G. The thoroughly revised musical text is complemented by an informative preface and detailed commentary. Very Advanced level.
