Description
This CD is dedicated to this unique woman musician who died one hundred years ago in 1896. The selections, most of them premiere recordings, offer us a close and illuminating look at her compositional art and the family musical context in which she lived and worked.
Clara Schumann was more than just Robert's better half and not at all a homebody. It is only in the last ten years, with the new interest in
women's contributions to the arts, history, and the sciences, that Clara Schumann has finally received recognition as a composer in her own right.
This recording also promises to bring Woldemar Bargiel, Clara Schumann's half-brother, some of the recognition he rightly deserves as a composer.
