This untitled Adagio from Schumann's Album for the Young is a quiet, expressive song built around a broad upper melody and softly repeated inner chords. Its gentle surface is colored by frequent harmonic changes. The opening phrases rise and fall over an accompaniment that often enters after the beat. In the repeated second section, chromatic bass notes and accented melodic tones briefly increase the tension. The music then relaxes into more spacious lines, a small ornamental turn, and a subdued C-major ending. Interesting fact: several accompaniment figures begin with a rest, so the melody sounds first and the supporting harmony follows a moment later.
