Schumann Waldszenen Op.82 No.2 Jäger auf der Lauer (Hunters on the lookout)

Played on Yamaha YDP 164 The second piece is a very exciting work where melody in octave and unusual interval frequently appear, giving the piece very strong tension. The marching like accompaniment portrays the atmosphere where we can feel the rapid heartbeat and the vigorous battle. The piece is written in ABA+coda form in d minor, but the tonal key can be discovered only very later in the piece.
