About This Song

About "Carnaval, Op. 9 : Schumann: Carnaval, Op. 9: X. A.S.C.H.-S.C.H.A. (Lettres dansantes)" by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli

A.S.C.H.-S.C.H.A. spells out dancing letters, a musical cryptogram set spinning. Michelangeli animates Schumann's obsessive motif with quicksilver precision, the piano becoming a kaleidoscope of shifting accents. Calm and agitation collide in this playful yet haunted puzzle.
