Coincidence - I've just been listening to that this evening, plus Waldszenen.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

I'm listening to it now - instead of the Star Wars theme currently "gracing" the Breakfast Show

This passed me by when it was on. Might be of interest, even if not specific to Op 133.

Hear, hear: a "late" Schumann work (op.133): less exuberant and in some aspects less adventurous than his earlier works, but certainly as expressive, exploratory and innovative.

I've known and admired these for many years...
