Schumann (Documentary)

Description

Robert Schumann's Piano Concerto in A minor is not a traditional virtuoso showpiece but a cooperative venture between the soloist and the orchestra. This new relationship transported the piano concerto into the realm of symphonic music. German musicologist Wulf Konold explains special composition features using concert footage of Argentinean pianist Martha Argerich. Riccardo Chailly conducts the Gewandhausorchester.
