Schumann Davidsbundlertanze Op 6 Urtext

The “Davidsbund” – A Group Of Artists Who Had Joined Forces In A Revolutionary Struggle Against The Backward Structures In The Artistic World, Amongst Whose Members He Counted Both Real And Imaginary People – Only Existed In Schumann’S Imagination. He Published The First Edition Of His “Davidstänze” Under The Pseudonym “Florestan And Eusebius” – The Two Characters That Represented Contrasting (Impetuous And Gentle) Aspects Of His Own Self. Clara Wieck, To Whom He Unsuccessfully Proposed Several Times Whilst Writing It, Is Also Represented; “More Than Anything” He Dedicated These Dances To Her. These Short, Extremely Diverse Tone Pictures Afford Us An Intimate Insight Into Schumann’S Emotional State At The Time.
