Symphony No. 1 (Spring) / Konzertstück for Four Horns / Overture, Scherzo and Finale

Album by Robert Schumann & Seattle Symphony & Gerard Schwarz

This is a collection of orchestral works by Robert Schumann composed between 1841 and 1849. They are in the early Romantic orchestral style, combining lyrical lines, prominent brass writing, varied rhythmic energy and a broad range of orchestral colour, and they were written as Schumann moved towards larger-scale orchestral projects after an earlier focus on piano music and songs.
