"While best remembered for his piano music and songs and some of his symphonic and chamber works Schumann made significant contributions to all the musical genres of his day and cultivated a number of new ones as well. His dual interest in music and literature led him to develop a historically informed music criticism and a compositional style deeply indebted to literary models. A leading exponent of musical Romanticism he had a powerful impact on succeeding generations of European composers." John Daverio and Eric Sams in Grove Music Online. C. F. Peters [PN 7018] unknown books
