Schumann's "Märchenbilder" op. 113 belong to his later works and were composed in 1851. Originally they were arranged for viola or violin and piano. Although the title suggests a text-oriented programme, a musical version of a fairy tale, this is not the case. Schumann's intention was merely to convey associations of poetry and literature. This clarinet version maintains the original key but its broader compass, in particular by transpositions to the upper octave, was taken into account. Specific solutions have been found for string-specific passages such as e.g. double stops.
