Five Pieces in Folk Style, op. 102
for violin (or oboe) and piano
by Robert Schumann (1810-1856) - German composer, pianist, and influential music critic

Dedicated to Andreas Grabau. Edited by Joachim Draheim. 

This work, op 102, belongs to the group of chamber works written from the years 1849 to 1851, in which Schumann experimented with a previously neglected instrument in the form of a duo with piano. The present Urtext edition of the violin arrangement which Schumann himself prepared with meticulous care takes the first edition of 1851 as its principal source. Edited by Joachim Draheim. Please note that this is the violin version from which oboe players often borrow.
