Robert Schumann (8 June 1810 – 29 July 1856) was a German composer, pianist, and music critic associated with the early Romantic era. He composed works across a wide range of genres, including music for solo piano, voice and piano, chamber ensembles, orchestra, choir, and opera. His compositions are often viewed as representative of German Romanticism. Born in Zwickau, Saxony, into a middle-class family with no direct musical background, Schumann initially considered careers in both law and music. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Robert+Schumann">Read more on Last.fm</a>
