Thread: Johann Sebastian Bach and Robert Schumann

Im wonder if i could get some help putting together an repertoire from Johann Sebsatian Bachs and Robert Schummans pieces. What i can handle ranks about Frederic Chopins Nocturne 19, 20 & 21 and Johann Sebastian Bachs Contrapunctus One from Kunst der Fuge. Talking about Solo piano. Suggestions are appreciated

Selections from Kinderszenen.

Some slow (minor-key, basically) preludes and fugues from the Well-Tempered Clavier.

Exactly, like numbers 4 and 22 from Book I.

Music by Robert Schumann from a CD entitled Tribute to Bach.



St. John Passion by Bach arranged by Robert Schumann. Interesting arrangement.

You should be able to play almost all of Schumann's Waldszenen, Op. 82, also Gesange Der Fruhe, Op. 133 - 1. Im Ruhigen Tempo.

You might also look into Three Sonatas for the Young - Sonata #1 in G, Op. 188a!

Listen to these two Youtube playlists. They are amazing.

Schumann : Bunte Blätter, opus 99

Schumann : Albumblätter, opus 124

My favourite Schumann piano works.
