5 Stuecke im Volkston Op. 102

Composed in 1849, Schumann's most productive year, the Stuecke im Volkston Op. 102 are Schumann's only surviving original work for cello and piano. The first text-critical edition of these brilliant character pieces is based on the first edition of 1851 and on the autograph. It features an extensive preface detailing the history of the origin and reception of the work.
