At the end of his life, Robert Schumann was overcome by madness, a tragedy where only silence was heard. Nothing escaped from his unsound mind, not even one sheet of music. He composed only in between the phases of insanity, and those pages are at times strange or incomplete. But beyond this tragic end, Schumann can be defined as a fanciful character who believed he was a "musical poet" like E.T.A. Hoffmann or Jean Paul Richter. Today, the evocative power of his style is fascinating: we hear a whole gallery of portraits, real or imaginary, like a string of fantasies set to music.
