  The World of Robert Schumann

  Thirteen programmes in an epic series that has been over 20 years in the making. Host, John Tibbetts, recognized something in the music and in the man that "spoke" to him in special ways. Since it's inception in 1983 as a few programmes with narration and music, The World of Robert Schumann now includes dramatizations, interviews, critical comment and hundreds of musical excerpts

  (8) The World of Childhood: The Cult of the Child in the Romantic Age

  Schumann's music about childhood draws upon the traditions of folklore and the fairy tales of Grimm, Andersen and ETA Hoffmann, and his experiences with his own children. Analyses of the Scenes from Childhood Op 15 and Album for the Young Op 68, by pianists Jörg Demus, Claude Frank, György Sandor, Constance Keene; and the Song Album for the Young by singer Elly Ameling. Special commentary by author/illustrator Maurice Sendak (WFMT)
