Carnaval / Kreisleriana

Album by Robert Schumann & Mitsuko Uchida

Carnaval and Kreisleriana are piano cycles by Robert Schumann, composed in 1834–35 and 1838 respectively. Both are Romantic-era solo piano works that juxtapose short, characterful pieces with dramatic contrasts and virtuosic writing, reflecting Schumann's literary inspirations and marking important developments in his early-to-middle-period output and the nineteenth-century piano repertoire.
