• Info: Originally intended as a birthday gift for his daughter Marie, and written mainly for children, this suite of 43 short works was written by Schumann in 1848. As well as containing some lovely pieces, I highly recommend this as a sight-reading tool for early-intermediate level pianists and above. As I wasn't able to record my intended piece in time for this recital, I'm submitting another one made a couple of months ago. It was initially conceived as an experiment as I have a tendency to overpractice for the recitals and wanted to record this while it still felt fresh. In the end it took around 30 mins from sight-reading to pressing the red button. There are a few things I'd change if I were to spend more time with this piece but overall the whole process was very enjoyable.
