About

Pianist David Kaplan releases New Dances of the League of David, comprised of a set of miniatures he commissioned between 2013 and 2015 to be woven into the Davidsbundlertanze of Robert Schumann. Kaplan asked 16 composers to write responses to Schumann's original, presenting a startling range of compositional approaches, though all unified by their common engagement with Schumann's spirit.
