About the piece

An impromptu for two pianos on a motif from Schumann's Manfred, written by a composer who knew both Schumann and Mendelssohn personally in Leipzig. Reinecke's long life spanned an extraordinary stretch of musical history: he was born while Beethoven was still composing the Ninth Symphony and died in 1910, the year Stravinsky's Firebird was premiered.
