Today features a very troubled composer. On this date in 1854, composer Robert Schumann was saved from a suicide attempt. He tried to drown himself in the Rhine River, but he was unsuccessful. According to another report, it was on February 27, 1854. So I’m sorry if my information is skewed. For more info:
