Robert Schumann
Three Romances op. 94 for Oboe and Piano
Robert Schumann in fact composed just one work for the clarinete, namely the “Drei Fantasiestücke” op. 73 for clarinet and piano of February 1849. But the “Drei Romanzen” op. 94 for oboe, written at the end of that same year, were marketed with solo parts for clarinet and for violin too.
Clarinettists are certainly delighted that G. Henle Verlag is following this principle of alternative scoring. The manuscript that Robert gave to his wife Clara in 1849 as a Christmas gift does not survive. Instead, autograph sketches have been consulted for our Urtext edition, and these have enabled correction of some irregularities in the 1851 first edition. The editor’s preface and commentary give extensive information on textual questions.
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).
