(This piano work is taken from Schumann's "Album für die Jugend, Op.68", which was composed in 1848 and published in 1849. The fine transcription was done by Pierre Gouin).

I noticed that you should listen with headphones to be able to hear all details in the arrangement.

Robert Schumann (8 June 1810 – 29 July 1856) was widely regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era. Schumann left the study of law, intending to pursue a career as a virtuoso pianist. He had been assured by his teacher Friedrich Wieck that he could become the finest pianist in Europe, but a hand injury ended this dream. Schumann then focused his musical energies on composing. In 1840, Schumann married Friedrich Wieck's daughter Clara, against the wishes of her father, following a long and acrimonious legal battle, which found in favor of Clara and Robert. Schumann suffered from a lifelong mental disorder, first manifesting itself in 1833 as a severe melancholic depressive episode. After a suicide attempt in 1854, Schumann was admitted to a mental asylum, at his own request, in Endenich near Bonn. Diagnosed with "psychotic melancholia", Schumann died two years later in 1856 without having recovered from his mental illness.

This piano work is taken from Schumann's "Album für die Jugend, Op.68", which was composed in 1848 and published in 1849.
The actual title of the piece is "Figurierter Choral" (Figured Chorale). It is based upon the well-known melody, "Freu dich sehr, O meine Seele" (Rejoice greatly, O my soul).
The fine transcription was done by Pierre Gouin.
