Robert Schumann's Allegro in B minor, Op. 8 (1831) is a long, technically difficult, improvisatory work that demonstrates, as in much of the composer's early keyboard music, the palpable influence of Hummel. The Allegro was originally intended as the first movement of a never-completed piano sonata.
