Robert Schumann: Papillons Op.2: Solo de Piano

‘I always welcome excellent scholarly editions of standard works in the piano repertoire, such as this fine edition of Schumann’s Papillons. A valuable introduction discusses Schumann’s use of the word pedal, how to play the ornaments and arpeggio indications in the score, and the issue of problematic metronome markings. The editor provides other valuable performing information as well. This edition, with its concise language and scholarly,well-researched text, gives more information on performance style than any other edition I know.’ J.M. Clavier
