Where's Waldo? Where's Gade?	William Wieland
First listen to the music. If you are unable to play the song at a piano, here is a YouTube video: Album für die Jugend: 41. Nordisches Lied (Johannes Schröder).
Robert Schumann composed Nordisches Lied (Nordic Song) as a tribute to his friend, the Danish musician Niels Gade. The German subtitle reads "Greetings to G."
The first four pitches of the melody, G - A - D - E, constitute a motive or motif, a musical word. With measure numbers, tell me where you find this particular pitch motive. Hint—it is often disguised!
Keep It Short & Simple — I recommend that you confine your search to the highest and lowest pitches, i.e. the soprano and bass. Inner parts are obscured because the number of pitches in the chords change, the pianists hands leap about making it hard to hear any horizontal lines, and the single tone color of a piano makes it very difficult to discern mezzo-soprano, alto, or tenor voices.
Robert Schumann was a contemporary of Richard Wagner. Music at this time often had a clear melody on top, a distinct bass line on bottom, and many notes in the middle. See the depiction of Wagner’s music from Conversations with Igor Stravinsky by Robert Craft. (R.C. is Robert Craft and I.S. is Igor Stravinsky.) Perspectives of New Music, a peer-reviewed academic journal specializing in music theory and analysis of new music, features Stravinsky’s drawing. Some believe that Stravinsky was influenced by Picasso’s Constellations (#6) (1924)
The following pitches are NOT a motive. They do not create a horizontal melodic figure of any kind even though they are in successive chords. I cherry-picked them. G — bar 6, beat 3 — bottom pitch of the right hand chord (half note) A — bar 7, beat 1 — bass D — bar 7, beat 2 — soprano E — bar 7, beat 3 — middle pitch of the right hand chord (dotted quarter note)
