Info for Schumann: Grande Humoresque Op. 20 Piano Sonata No. 1 Op. 11

After the crepuscular Brahms of his first disc, Adam Laloum now reveals another fiery, passionate vision of German Romanticism.

The first Sonata and the Humoreske Op. 20 present the dreamlike universe of Schumann, with its contrasts, madness and poetry. These two tormented works were composed as he waited to marry his beloved Clara.
