Op. 126

About Robert Schumann's Seven Pieces in Fughetta Form

Schumann´s engagement with Bach was perhaps even more extensive and varied than that of Mendelssohn, whose name is usually the one mentioned in this connection.
Schumann pursued various analogies between the keyboard fugue and the short romantic piano piece, but also wrote pure examples of Bachian polyphony – in fact it seems to have given him some relief at times of psychological crisis.
