Description
This book explores how the generation that came after Beethoven was central in reshaping and refining the conception of concerto style, and particularly the piano concerto. It relates Schumann's own compositional development to his musical environment, recreating the exciting milieu in which Schumann and his contemporaries lived and worked.

Robert Schumann was a unique personality in nineteenth century music. A celebrated music critic and champion of new composers, he was also a talented performer and composer who did much to modernize the literature and performance style for the piano. This book explores how the generation that came after Beethoven was central in reshaping and refining the conception of concerto style, and particularly the piano concerto, focusing on the key period of 1845-55. It relates Schumann's own compositional development to his musical environment, recreating the exciting milieu in which Schumann and his contemporaries lived and worked. Written by one of the leading new generation of scholars on nineteenth century music, and Schumann in particular, this book will be of great interest to college and conservatory teachers, and students as well as music connoisseurs.
