Schumann resonances are the principal background in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum [2] from 3 Hz through 60 Hz [3] and appear as distinct peaks at extremely low frequencies around 7.83 Hz (fundamental), 14.3, 20.8, 27.3, and 33.8 Hz.

Schumann in a Josef Kriehuber etching from 1839, the year preceding his marriage to Clara. It was at this time that he began to compose vocal music prolifically.
