Prelude and Fugue by Clara Schumann for SATB Saxophone Quartet

Save
An extraordinary pianist and under-appreciated composer, Clara Schumann is more frequently remembered as the wife of Robert Schumann. In the 1840’s together they studied counterpoint and fugal technique. The three preludes and fugues of Opus 16, published in 1845, may be a result of that study but they are much more than mere academic exercises.
