This German composer, born in Zwickau in 1810, is one of the typical representatives of Romanticism in music. He was the son of a bookseller, so from an early age he was connected with literature to such an extent that at a certain stage of his life he hesitated between this field of art and music.
'Beautiful voice, acting talent, sensual stage presence' - these are the main features of this versatile talented artist. Agata Dalli, in addition to singing with orchestral accompaniment, performs solo piano pieces and sings with her own piano accompaniment.

Robert Schumann was a prominent German composer, pianist, and music critic, known primarily for his romantic piano works. His Humoresque Op. 20 is one of the most famous and beloved pieces in this genre. The video features Sviatoslav Richter, a Russian pianist who is regarded as one of the greatest performers of classical music in the 20th century. Richter was known for his emotional expression and technical excellence, which is evident in his interpretation of this particular Humoresque. This recording was made in Moscow in 1956. Richter's emotionally charged performance captures attention from the very first notes. His interpretation reveals the depth and complexity of this composition. Schumann's Humoresque consists of nine sections, reflecting a wide range of moods. The artist swiftly transitions from melancholy to joy, from nostalgia to enthusiasm, creating an exceptional atmosphere in each section. Richter excels in meeting the technical demands of the piece, providing a clean and precise performance. His interpretation is full of unexpected intricate details that give the piece a deeper emotional layer. This magnificent performance of Schumann's Humoresque by Richter is a true feast for the ears and is a perfect example of how a great pianist can capture the essence of a composition and convey all of his passion and talent. Richter's reputation as one of the most outstanding performers of classical music is fully deserved, and this video serves as excellent proof of that.
This is absolutely amazing! Sviatoslav Richter is an extraordinary pianist and he proves it in this performance of Schumann's Humoresque. His way of combining technique, emotion, and dynamics is almost unbelievable. He transports us to another world, where we can feel every note of this beautiful music. I am moved and delighted by his talent. You have to see and hear it to believe that a person can play the piano so beautifully. The only word that comes to my mind is "magic."
