About the book

Robert Schumann wrote his Adagio and Allegro in February 1849, in a few days, for the valve horn, then still new; it is one of the first great pieces written for it. A slow song, marked Langsam, mit innigem Ausdruck (slowly, with inward expression), runs without a break into a fiery Allegro (Rasch und feurig) whose gentler middle section returns to the song's warmth before the opening fire comes back, faster still.

The horn part is printed for the horn in F, from the Schumann collected edition edited by Clara Schumann (Breitkopf & Härtel).
