Listening Through The Dictionary of Composers and Their Music
Robert Schumann (1810-1856)
Bio
Robert Schumann was born in Zwickau, Germany. He began composing as a child but ended up studying law at the University of Leipzig and Heidelberg. A Paganini concert led him to switch his focus to music and he began composing quite successfully. He suffered from depressive bouts throughout his life and died of pneumonia while being treated for psychotic melancholia in an asylum.
