| Popis: | 92 This piece of music is composed by Robert Schumann (1810-1856) who ages twenty-four at the time in 1834. The title comes from the father of Schumann’s first love, Ernestine von Fricken. Mr. Fricken who was an amateur flutes player and always wanted to be a composer. When Mr. Fricken dedicated the piece of music that he wrote in 1834 to Schumann, he was asked for opinions. Schumann not only did a thorough analysis carefully, but also composed its own variation based on Mr. Fricken’s piece. The new set of music is combined by twelve Etudes and is named Thema Quasi Marcia Funebre. The idea of the title comes from different Etudes such as Davidsbundler Etuden and Etuden im Orchester Character, von Florestan und Eusebius. However, Schumann had decided to use his own name for the new Etudes in 1837, and the given name was Etudes symphoniques. The name was also dedicated to an English composer whose name is William Sterndale Bennet. When the second edition of Etudes was out in 1852, Schumann omitted the third and ninth Etudes and added a final piece called Finale to the set. The title of the new set was changed to Etudes en forme de variations. After Schumann’s death, J. Brahms (1833-1897) edited Schumann’s version and created a third version in 1862. The third edition of Etudes is currently the most popular version. It not only includes the third and ninth Etudes, which were originally omitted by Schumann, but also adds Finale to the set. The part “symphoniques” of the name Etudes symphoniques has its purpose. Schumann tried to use piano to make the same sound effect as the orchestra. Every variations and chords used produces a unique style of orchestra sound. The author has divided the work into three sections. First of all, music analysis is discussed. This involves the background of composition, different kinds of Etudes versions, and the combination of variation trend and Etudes for performance. Then, more analysis is taken into the piece Etudes symphoniques. The analysis includes chords, beats and the structure of the music. At last, technical evaluation of the music is examined. The evaluation talks about the techniques, practicing methods, and suggestions for the title and variation.
