Kreisleriana / Carnaval

Album by Robert Schumann & Míċeál O'Rourke

Kreisleriana and Carnaval are cycles of solo piano pieces by Robert Schumann, composed in 1838 and 1834-35 respectively. They are rooted in Romantic piano writing, made up of short character pieces that shift rapidly between lyrical melody and agitated passagework, and they come from an early stage of Schumann's career when he turned to character-based miniatures and to the use of literary models in piano music.
