In Reply to: Schumann's personal life posted by Anna on December 04, 19103 at 17:56:55:
: I am doing a research paper great masters of art and music being metally unbalenced and would be happy for any info. on Schumann's condition and how it affected his work.
The first thing most musicians and musicologists should do is forget that old urban legend about Schumann's "insanity" having a negative effect on works of his Third Period. The only noticeable effect is signs of concentration problems in a very few works. For what some critics hold as "uninspired" is actually S. development of a sparcer expression (ala Brahms, Sibelius, etc.). Schumann wrote masterpieces right up to the end.
