Kreisleriana, Op. 16, is a composition in eight movements by Robert Schumann for solo piano, subtitled . Schumann claimed to have written it in only four days in April 1838 and a revised version appeared in 1850. The work was dedicated to Frédéric Chopin, but when a copy was sent to the Polish composer, "he commented favorably only on the design of the title page".
