Overview

Schumann’s quicksilverpersonality, subject to fleetingchanges and revelatory emotionaloutbursts, flows through the worksin Eric Le Sage’s programme.

The composer’s rational andromantic sides surface inDavidsbündlertänze, an earlywork inspired in part by his lovefor Clara Wieck, and the Étudessymphoniques, a collection ofcontrasting variations performedcomplete with the five posthumousÉtudes published in 1890.
