Product Details


Product Description

Clara Schumann née Wieck (1819-1896) was a child prodigy on the piano. She was taught and promoted by her father, a noted (and perhaps domineering?) teacher.
At 14 she premiered her piano concerto, and by 18 was a leading virtuoso in Europe.
These Nine Caprices were written when she was 13.
Originally for piano, they lend themselves well to a string quartet. A flowing style using rubato in the tempo
is called for here, creating a charm to the movements. The Nine Caprices are suitable individually, selected as a suite, or all played in their entirety.
They would lend themselves well at a formal occasion.
