In January 1841 the recently married Robert Schumann sat down and in a burst of energy composed his Symphony No. 1. It was written in four days, and has come to be known as his 鈥楽pring鈥� on account of its exuberance.
Clara Schumann is, for her husband, the revitalising Spring. The quaility of this work - which she suggested he compose - shows her importance. Every note speaks of Robert's redemption and re-birth.
