Format : Sheet music 'Do you not know Jean Paul our great writer I have learnt more counterpoint from him than from my music teacher'. Jean Paul's 'Vorschule der Ästhetik' with its extensive treatment of humour probably occasioned Schumann to thinkof giving a Piano work the title 'Humoreske' thus giving birth to a new musical genre. The 'romantic humour' is not however aimed at humour in a modern sense of the word but rather at a portrayal of the fragility andcontradictory nature of the human condition. As if in a kaleidoscope Schumann juxtaposes the most diverse elements of form and moods. Ernst Herttrich's revision reflects the latest scholarly findings for this unusual work.
