Op 94, Three Romances for Oboe and Piano - 1. Nicht schnell - Robert Schumann Tab by Jeff Kollasch, Jan 2021 ('jeffkollasch', contact at his gmail address). Schumann's Op94 Romance for Piano & Oboe "Nicht Schnell", German for "not fast". Something like "Moderato" I suppose. It's a pretty melody and nice meandering piano acompanyment. I force a stopping point at the end of measure 26 for not having the pacience to do the whole thing, but the full 89 measures contain a lot of more-academic/less-romantic stuff I'm not after anyway. My rough/rubato demo: https://youtu.be/VNY5vtG_fF4 I give a MIDI if you want to hear it in more strict time. As I understand this piece is supposed to be performed before and after a middle part called "Einfach, innig" for a 12 minute long piano/oboe performance. I am shortening "Nicht Schnell" to a 1.5 minute piece. I attempted to do something with "Einfach, innig" as well but came up empty. My bars match the MIDI at http://www.kunstderfuge.com/schumann.htm My arrangement has piano and oboe trading dominance since that's how I hear the piece. The oboe is at times suporting more complicated piano activity. I allow a natural pause before the natural and artificial harmonics. If you don't like pausing you may need to fret the notes somewhere instead. This could be repeated once and then resolved to A-minor perhaps. However it is also good just played once. [Bar 19 of Schumann's Op94 No2 has an F (1st fret high E). I think is written as F# but could go either way harmonically and I knowingly put it as F in my arrangement because I liked the sound.] 3/4 ..."not fast" 1 |-----|----0--|---1--5---1-|-0-----0----|-3-5-3---0-1|-0-----------|-5---3---1-| |-----|----1--|-3----------|-1-1-0-1-1--|-0-----3----|-1-1-0-3-1-0-|-1---2---3-| |-----|-2--2--|-2----------|-----------2|-0----------|-------------|-2---------| |-----|--2----|------------|-2----------|------------|-3---2---0---|-----------| |-----|-0-----|------------|------------|-2----------|-------------|-0---------| |-----|-------|------------|------------|------------|-------------|-----------| 8 |-0-1-|5----------|-5--1--0-|5-1-0---0---|-5-1-0--0--|-1---0---1---|0---5--3---| |-1-3-|5-----3-1-0|-5--3--3-|----------1-|----------1|---3---3---1-|1-0-3----1-| |-2-2-|2-2-2------|-2--2--1-|------2-----|-------2---|-----1-------|----2------| |-2-0-|----0---2--|---------|------------|-----------|-2-----------|-----------| |-3-0-|0----------|-0--0--0-|0-----------|-----------|-0-----------|3----------| |-----|-----------|---------|------------|-0---------|-------------|-----------| 15 VII .... |-12--8-7--12--8-5-|3====---10-12-13|<12>==1---0--|-5-1-0---0---|-0--<19>-0-1-0| |-10---------------|3====-6---------|----1-3-----0|-1-3-1-1-0---|--------------| |-------7------7---|----------------|-------------|-------------|--------------| |------------------|----------------|-------------|-----------2-|--------------| |------------------|-<12>-----------|-------------|-0-----------|--------------| |-0----------------|----------------|-------------|-------------|-0------------| 4 4 1 RH harm LH harm 2 20 |-0-----------|-2---0-----2|---3-2-5-3-0|---3-2-0---2|-0--------|-0--------|-0-| |---1-0---0---|---0---0-1--|-0-------4--|-1-------4--|-----1--0-|---0-3--1-|-1-| |-----------4-|------------|------------|---------4--|-----2--2-|----------|-2-| |-2-----4-----|------------|------------|------------|----------|-----3--0-|-2-| |-----2-------|------------|------------|------------|----------|----------|-0-| |-------------|------------|------------|------------|-<12>-----|-0--------|---| RH harm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
