Fantasiestücke op. 78

Originally for Clarinet and Piano, Robert Schumann’s deep yet delightful set of three Fantasiestücke, Op. 73 has long been a staple of the repertoire, with transcriptions occasionally seeping into other instruments’ libraries as well. The work has been elegantly adapted (into a new key) for Flute and Piano by Mark Sparks, principal flutist of the Saint Louis Symphony.
