Symphonien Nos. 2 & 3 "Rhenish"

Album by Robert Schumann & London Philharmonic Orchestra & Kurt Masur

Symphonien Nos. 2 & 3 "Rhenish" are symphonies by Robert Schumann, composed in 1846 and 1850 respectively. They exemplify mid-Romantic orchestral writing, combining richly textured orchestration, lyrical themes and contrapuntal development, and occupy an important place in Schumann's mature symphonic output as explorations of form and expressive colour.
