Robert Schumann, one of the most famous and important Romantic composers of the 19th century, was born 200 years ago in Saxony on 8 June 1810. As a young man he studied the piano, but a hand injury ended his hopes of becoming a virtuoso. Instead, Schumann dedicated himself to composition. During different phases of his career, he focussed on keyboard music, song, chamber music, choral music, opera and symphony. Schumann’s genius, however, was cut short by his death in an asylum in 1856.
