Description

Robert Schumann’s intention to create valuable and, with regard to didactics, sensibly created music for children and young people was not limited to the world-famous Album f?r die Jugend Op. 68 for piano (1848). Apart from Liederalbum f?r die Jugend Op. 79 (1849), he also created two works which should encourage four-handed piano playing. These were the progressively arranged 12 vierh?ndige Klavierst?cke f?r kleine und gro?e Kinder Op. 85 (1849) and Kinderball Op. 130 (1853), which put the Sechs leichte Tanzst?cke together into a charming archaic suite. Based on the score of the New Schumann Complete Edition (ed. by Joachim Draheim und Bernhard Appel), the new edition of the Wiener Urtext Edition for the first time presents a reliable urtext based on the sources, including a hitherto unpublished easy piano piece which was intended for Op. 85.
