In response to failures Schumann once again turned more to composing during his time in Düsseldorf. He wrote many new works also ones for the Piano for which he had only written a few pieces after his first years ofcomposing.Bach's music played an important role in the Schumanns' house at the time; this is mirrored in the fact that Schumann turned to baroque forms again. However he wanted his fugues to be understood as 'characterpieces just in a stricter form'.The Piano Pieces in Fughetta Form op. 126 published in Henle's catalogue for the first time unite the strict formal demands with romantic expression in a masterly manner.

This exceptional collection draws upon works from 20 of the world?s greatest piano composers. These pieces have been specially arranged for easy piano, giving the beginner-intermediate level pianist engaging and inspiring pieces to enjoy.
