Robert Schumann revisited: advice to young musicians (Main)

Robert Schumann was far ahead of his time, not least in his attitude to children and young people; his 'Advice for Young Musicians', originally created to accompany his famous 'Album for the Young', remains as relevant today as when it was written.

Here, celebrated cellist Steven Isserlis adds his own extensive commentary to Schumann's words of wisdom.

The advice is by turns practical, humorous and profound, making this an important volume for aspiring musicians of all ages and standards.
