Clara Schumann's Piano Concerto

Available for 17 days

Sara Mohr-Pietsch explores Clara Schumann's virtuosic Piano Concerto, premiered by the composer when she was just sixteen years old, in a concert conducted by Felix Mendelssohn. As part of the map, Sara includes works by other child prodigies, individuals who were both composers and performers, and traces musical lines to pieces which share similarities with Clara Schumann's only full orchestral work.
