Search - Alexander Lonquich, Patricia Kopatchinskaja :: Schumann: Complete Symphonic Works, Vol. 5

In Schumanns uvre for solo instruments and orchestra, the Konzertstücke complement his solo concertos. Confined to one movement, they are more concentrated, more pointed in their characters and freer in the development of their ideas than their bigger siblings. The covertly multi-movement piece for four horns also harnesses the formal and poetic experience of the Fourth Symphony: Schumann was a composer with open borders.
