Three Romances for flute and piano (Op 94)
R. Schumann: "Three Romances" for flute and piano (Op 94) were written in 1849, in Dresden, originally - for oboe and piano, as a Christmas present to his wife Clara Schumann, calling them "hundredth opusculum" (hundredth work). The piece was published in 1850, adding alternate violin and clarinet versions despite Schumann's response to comply (If I had originally written the work for violin or clarinet it would have become a completely different piece).

Robert Schumann (1810-1856) was a German pianist, composer and music critic. Due to his hand injury he had to focus his musical career on composing, mostly for piano.
Despite the fact that music critics of his time doubted the quality of his music, often calling the changes in his composing style as "lucid experiments" (Schumann suffered from various mental issues throughout his life), Schumann is regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era.
