Ivan Muller was born in Reval, Russia (now Tallinin, Estonia) on December 3, 1786, and died in Buckeburg (Germany) in 1854. In 1808-09 he performed widely as a clarinet virtuoso in Berlin, Leipzig, Wien, Paris and many other places where he also presented the new 'clarinette omnitonique' in B flat which he had invented. That system of keys used in Germany to this day is based on Mullers invention. As a composer Muller was an exponent of the early Romantic style and wrote numerous concertos for his chosen instrument as well as this Serenade for Clarinet and Piano (or Harp or Guitar). The editor Dieter Klocker writes: ''These rather beautiful and accessible Romantic miniatures enjoyed great popularity in their day and I assume that even today they will meet with the approval of professional and amateur players alike.''.

Robert und Clara Schumann pflegten zeitlebens intensive Kontakte zu anderen Musikerpersonlichkeiten, seien es Komponistenkollegen, Musikerfreunde, Schuler oder Ratsuchende. Die in diesem Band versammelten Symposionsbeitrage konzentrieren sich nicht nur auf die namhaften unter ihnen, wie Brahms, Mendelssohn Bartholdy oder Liszt, sondern weiten die Untersuchungen auf jenen grossen Personenkreis aus, der sich aus der Befragung aller zeitgenossischen Quellen ergibt, angefangen von Schumanns Schwager Woldemar Bargiel bis hin zu der weithin unbekannten Komponistin Elise Muller.
