Eric Sams'' study of Schumann''s 246 songs (Faber 1961, revised 1993) - a companion volume to his The Songs of Hugo Wolf, also available in Faber Finds - remains a classic text. By providing a translation, commentary and notes for each of the songs, tracing original sources and relating recurring themes vividly to Schumann''s life, Sams provides a unique documentary of Schumann''s song-writing art.
The book includes a foreword (to the First Edition) by the legendary accompanist, Gerald Moore,
who writes:
''So felicitous is the writing that one is hardly conscious of the erudition and profound thought that have gone into the making of it . . . Eric Sams has produced a work that will be read and read again as long as Robert Schumann''s songs are loved.''
