Today, we can assume that the title of the pieces, originally called Romances, was merely supposed to conjure up a poetic and fairytale world. Presumably inspired by Mozart's “Kegelstatt” Trio K. 498, Schumann occupied himself intensively with plans for a work for this distinctive combination of instruments, whose “unique effect” enthused him. Yet almost three years passed before he sent a publisher these works that he had “written with great pleasure”. The first edition contained a violin part as an alternative to the clarinet. As this part was authorized by Schumann, it is also included in this Urtext edition.
