Between October 1838 and April 1839 Robert Schumann was staying in Vienna, in search of a new publisher of his Neue Zeitschrift fxfcr Musik. That would enable him to start a new life there, together with his fiancxe9e Clara Wieck. But he soon had to conclude that the Austrian censorship in conservative Vienna left no room for his progressive ideas as a composer and publicist. In a letter dated December 30, 1838, he complained to Clara: 'You won't believe the stupidity and brutality that prevails in music here.' In spite of this reversal Schumann kept composing at a staggering rate. He wrote a number of important piano works in the briefest of time, including Arabeske, Op. 18; Blumenstxfcck, Op. 19; Humoreske, Op. 20; Nachtstxfccke, Op. 23; and the first four movements of Faschingsschwank, Op. 26. All these works were published in Vienna by Pietro Mechetti.
