Schumann Robert Concerto In a minor Op. 129. For Cello and Piano. by Leonard Rose. International

Schumann's Cello Concerto was composed in 1850, before his famous mental breakdown, and although he revised and prepared the work for publishing in 1854, the concerto doesn't display any signs of Schumann's instability. On the contrary, the piece is not just representative of the thematic style, structure and harmony Schumann is known for, it is regarded as one of his best examples of this; bold and advanced, and as a result an absolute pleasure to play and listen to. Edited by Leonard Rose for Cello and Piano. Published by International Music Company. Difficulty: ASTA Grade 6
