Description:
Clara Schumann (1819-1896), then Clara Wieck, wrote this collection of Four Characteristic Pieces (Qautre Pièces Caractéristiques), Op. 5 in 1835-1836, when she 16 or 17 years old. Op. 5 was performed frequently by the young Clara in concert, along with Op. 6 and Op. 7. Frederic Chopin particularly was "enchanted and enthusiastic" about Op. 5, prompting him to leave with a score after hearing it. Movements: 1. Impromptu: Le Sabbat, 2. Caprice à la Boléro, 3. Romance, 4. Scene Fantastique: Le Ballet des Revenants.
