Robert Schumann's piano music was directly influenced by the prevailing artwork, literature and poetry of the day. The best way to learn piano music of the 19th century, and the best piano teacher is to study these masterpieces alongside regular piano practice.
Many of the paintings above were painted after Schumann's Fantasy pieces were actually written (1837) but can still serve as a direct inspiration to understanding his work.
"Fable" by Schumann is 6th piece of the Fantasiestücke cycle and vacillates between the playful, whimsical nature of Florestan and the heavenly, calm nature of Eusebius.
Enjoy this recording!
