Robert Schumann, ‘a dreamer, a […] tone poet and writer whose inner
voices were those of childhood, of wonder, of love, of turmoil,
even of madness’ was renowned for the passion with which he
accorded many of his compositions. The works on this disc contain
the outpourings of his imagination and soul, particularly in
relation to his beloved Clara.His Fantasiestücke Op.12 were a
favourite of Franz Liszt, the title taken from E.T.A. Hoffmann’s
Fantasiestücke in Gallots Manier – a collection of writings in the
style of the 17th-century French engraver Jacques Callot. Among the
pieces are depictions of Schumann regulars such as Eusebius and
Florestan, but many reflect Schumann’s long fight to wed the young
Clara Wieck. No.5, In der Nacht, likens their plight to that of
Hero and Leander. The disc also contains the mysterious and
atmospheric Waldszenen Op.82, the playful Kinderszenen Op.18 and
Arabeske Op.18One of Brilliant Classics’ most prolific artists,
Hungarian pianist Klára Würtz is enjoying an international career.
Having won prizes in Dublin and Milan, she signed to a New
York-based management company, leading to performances at Carnegie
Hall and other prestigious concert venues throughout the U.S. and
Canada. She currently teaches at the Conservatory of Arts in
Utrecht.Other information:- Recorded in 1999 & 2007, The
Netherlands.- Robert Schumann was the master of the miniature, the
small form, the sketch characterising a person, a landscape, a mood
or an idea. The three piano cycles presented on this CD offer a
wide variety of emotions, from the sublime calm of a summer evening
(Des Abends), the intimacy of a dream (Träumerei), the soaring of
young passion (Aufschwung) to the sinister atmosphere of a pitch
dark night (In der Nacht).- Hungarian-born pianist Klára Würtz is
the ideal guide in this Schumannesque fancy world: “poetry and
sweep.. poignant lyricism..the finest complete Schumann cycle to
have been recorded by one pianist…”(Jed Distler, Classics Today).-
