His life was controversial ¿ from the tempestuous courtship of his future wife, Clara Wieck, to his tragic incarceration in the mental asylum where he died. This new edition of Schumann is based on recently-published sources that provide new dating for many of hiscompositions, and shed new light on his final years.
