Both, The Headless Horseman and Happy Farmer, are part of The Album for the Young by Robert Schumann, originally for piano, arranged here for String Orchestra. This work may be very useful to string teahcers as a recruiting tool.
Album for the Young (Album für die Jugend), Op. 68, was composed by Robert Schumann in 1848 for his three daughters. The album consists of a collection of 43 short works. Unlike the Kinderszenen, they are suitable to be played by children or beginners. The second part, starting at Nr. 19 (Kleine Romanze), is marked Für Erwachsenere (For adults; For more grown-up ones) and contains more demanding pieces.
