About the piece

A rhapsody from the last years of Norbert Burgmuller's very short life, published after his death. His music sits close to Mendelssohn and the young Schumann, and the small body of it that survives, two symphonies, a piano concerto, chamber works and songs, suggests a composer who had barely begun.
