Very famous, "Le gai laboureur" is presented in bass key to evoke the male voice and because Schumann entrusts this song, for a large part, to the left hand of the pianist. A phrase makes temporary use of singing in the third. Note the very precise choice of the composer for the initial phrase and its reprise. In the same collection, see "Petit morceau" for the first year and "Le cavalier sauvage" for the third year. (automatic translation)
