At one point of his career, Schuman was extremely well-known as a concert pianist; however, he injured his right hand performing finger-exercises on a machine of his own construction. As a result, Schuman became extremely depressed. He eventually visited Nikolai Dahl, an autosuggestive therapist in London, England, who restored his confidence. Schuman thus composed his famous Second Piano Concerto in C minor and dedicated it to Dr. Dahl. | At one point of his career, Schuman was extremely well-known as a concert pianist; however, he injured his right hand performing finger-exercises on a machine of his own construction.
