About

Tully Potter writes in his note: “In his enormous enthusiasm, backed up by his considerable skill, Schumann more or less invented the Romantic Lied, just as Schubert had virtually defined the Classical Lied."

The two cycles featured here, Dichterliebe Op.48 for a male voice and Frauenliebe und -leben Op.42 for a female voice, are perhaps the most personal products of 1840.
