The Liederkreis op. 39, first published in 1842, remains one of Schumanns most important song cycles to this day, and not only because of the famous Mondnacht. Eight years later, Schumann revised his work for a new edition, also replacing the opening piece in the first edition (Der frohe Wandersmann) with the song In der Fremde. The Henle Urtext edition offers both versions in theirentirety, thereby providing a wonderful opportunity to study Schumann's later work on the music. The two editions for medium and lowvoice complement the original version for high voice (51480550) - and as always with Schumann, in well-planned transpositions by the experienced song accompanist Gerold Huber.
