Talk:Piano Quintet (Schumann)

[edit] Expansion ideas

Page about a work like this could use it, I should think.

Beginning thoughts about how to add to the page's description section: the scherzo's somewhat rondo-like form with two different trios- typical for Schumann; the quotation of one of those trios in the finale (I'll have to check but I'm fairly sure of that part...), and some more about the finale's overall shape; the form of the funeral march (and the march's history in particular could be given at greater length).

Also, maybe some images of main themes of each movement?

(And was Leipzigerisch a reference to Bach or to the conservatives who inhabited Leipzig in Liszt's day, especially after Mendelssohn, though at the time he spoke poorly of Mendelssohn too- which precipitated the worst of that argument, according to Alan Walker's account? Liszt spent quite a bit of time on Bach's music, and seems to have thought quite well of it.)Schissel | Sound the Note! 17:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
