Robert Schumann
Symphonic Etudes op. 13, Versions 1837 and 1852
A secret engagement, a composer as prospective father-in-law and several rival publishing houses – it was against this backdrop that the work was composed. His youthful and passionate love for Ernestine von Fricken was short-lived, but it occasioned Schumann in 1837 to write the “intensely emotional variations” on a theme of her father’s, which were eventually to become the “Orchestral etudes”. Fifteen years later a new edition was published, authorised by Schumann, containing such important changes that we have included both versions. In our revised issue the editor Ernst Herttrich has provided each version with its own preface and an extensive commentary.

About the Composer
Robert Schumann
Connected with his oeuvre is the term he coined, Poetic Music, with which he strove for a fusion of literature and music, a paradigm particularly seen in his lyric piano pieces prior to 1839. Thereafter he devoted himself to other genres (song, symphony, chamber music, among others).

Het is de grote verdienste van Henle om beide versies in één prachtige band uit te geven. De versie van 1852 is in de nieuwe urtext los ingevoegd, wat een vergelijking tussen de etdues (1837) en de variaties (1852) vergemakkelijkt.
Pianowereld, 2007Cette nouvelle partition … ajoute, en annexe, les cinq Variations que Schumann avait retirées des deux versions éditées de son vivant et reprises par Clara et Brahms dans la Gesamtausgabe de 1893.
