The initial theme of the slow movement may well sound sentimental It has a quality that is very hard to describe, as of a young girl leaning out into the world and risking her feelings with a plaintive sincerity. “Here am I, in all my vulnerability,” it seems to say. The extended melody is, at first, for piano alone, then it is played by a solo cello – clearly representing Robert Schumann – while the piano weaves garlands around it in one of the most beautiful of declarations of love.
