Things were looking up for Robert Schumann in 1840. He was finally getting permission to marry his sweetheart, Clara Wieck, over the objections of her father. And he poured all his joy into songs - hundreds of them in that year! Dichterliebe (Poet's love) consists of 16 songs, which follow the path of love from longing and anticipation to heartache and illusion, when the lover discovers that his sentiments are not returned.
