There are three
movements in Fantasy
Pieces that make up
Robert Schumann’s Opus
73. Completed in 1849, he
linked each piece
harmonically. He directs
the performers to follow
on to the next section,
indicating that these
movements were intended
as a whole. From a mood
of delicate expression,
through eloquent and
lively, to fiery and
urgent, this is a
compelling and intriguing
work. The Fantasy Pieces
are full of Romanticism
and thoughtfulness to
make it an important and
entertaining
work.
This version
has been skillfully
arranged for Euphonium
and Piano by Ralph Sauer,
retired Principal
Trombonist of the Los
Angeles Philharmonic and
is appropriate for
advanced performers.
