Schumann Piano Concerto

Schumann Piano Concerto

Today we are going to continue our exploration into Clara and Robert Schumann’s music by diving into music by Robert. I first heard Robert’s piano concerto around the same time as Edvard Grieg’s piano concerto, probably on the same CD.

Grieg was directly influenced by Robert’s concerto; he had heard Clara perform it. Also, Grieg’s teacher was a friend of Robert. Both concertos have this ongoing conversation between the piano and orchestra, a common theme in romantic piano concertos.
