June 2010 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Schumann. Schumann wrote his Woodland Scenes in just nine days, beginning on 29th December 1848. The cycle of nine short pieces offers typically schizophrenic and ephemeral visions, in which the distinction between fantasy and reality is blurred. This unique and beautifully crafted recording links these three composers by simple woodland themes.
Three of the best-loved works for piano focusing on woodland themes.
Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856)
Waldszenen, Op.82
Edward MacDowell (1860 - 1908)
Woodland Sketches, Op.51
Leos Janacek (1854 - 1928)
On an Overgrown Path - Book 1
