The 'Davidsbund' - a group of artists who had joined forces in a revolutionary struggle against the backward structures in the artistic world, amongst whose members he counted both real and imaginary people - only existed in Schumann's imagination. He published the first edition of his 'Davidstänze' under the pseudonym 'Florestan and Eusebius' - the two characters that represented contrasting (impetuous and gentle) aspects of his own self. Clara Wieck, to whom he unsuccessfully proposed several times whilst writing it, is also represented; 'more than anything' he dedicated these dances to her.
These short, extremely diverse tone pictures afford us an intimate insight into Schumann's emotional state at the time.
