I often find Robert Schuman's music very interesting, but sometimes boring to listen to. He likes to write these little pieces that are very often, or can be very easily associated with narrative stories because of their episodic natures. The harmony is cool; the melody is charming; the rhythm is engaging ---- but oh my god! There are SO many cadences. I am talking about Kreisleriana op. 16... I heard a live performance of it tonight (and AGAIN). I remember ---- "This piece never ends" was the impression when I first heard it some years ago.
The above comments had absolutely nothing to do with the performance ---- I thought it was a great performance by Dr. Satterlee!
