Thanks so much for that contribution. I had read about the way Schumann had composed the first movement based on a song (I think aboout a girl with the same name as his wife, Clara) and that she was the one who encouraged him to add orchestration and turn it into a concerto. I did not, however, make the mental leap of the way the movements might be different than what I had come to expect in my short classical education.

I will definitely give the concerto a listen in separate parts as one of the inmates provided me with the links to a fine performance broken down into its three parts.

Again, thanks for the wise and helpful suggestions.
