Inhalt

a poetic journey

Their love revolved, as it were, around the piano keyboard: Clara Wieck und Robert Schumann were the epitome of the artistic romantic couple. Claire Huangci, prizewinner at the ARD and Géza Anda Competition, grew up with the music of the famous couple. At Stefaniensaal she plays and conducts the Schumanns’ two piano concertos – a poetic journey to the heart of German Romanticism, preceded by an overture by a princess of German Classicism.
