'I have
again composed so much
that sometimes it seems
to me altogether uncanny.
Oh, I cannot help it, I
would like to sing myself
to death like a
nightingale.' 138 of his
roughly 250 songs were
written in the 'lieder
year' 1840. This was the
year when the long years
of quarrelling about his
marriage to Clara Wieck
finally came to a happy
end by court order. But
even the following years
turned out to be
productive with regards
to the composition of
lieder. The current
edition contains the
lieder that form part of
Schumann's 'late work' or
were published rather
late. It is based on the
recently published Vol.
VI/6 (RSA 1043-10) of the
Robert Schumann Complete
Edition.
