The work is dedicated to a Pauline, Comtesse d'Abegg, who is actually a fictional invention of Schumann's. It  is possible that Schumann may have known a real woman named Abegg, but it appears his interest lay more in the musical possibilities of the name rather than the woman attached to it. (See McCorkle, p. 3).\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093600882847,"sku":"15943","price":375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Schumann_Abegg_15943_3.jpg?v=1722189109","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/15943-schumann-robert-theme-sur-le-nom-abegg-varie-pour-le-pianoforte-par-r-schumann-op-1","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
