The sixth instalment of pianist Lucy Parham’s award-winning Composer Portraits series, I, Clara tells the extraordinary life story of Clara Wieck Schumann in her own words.

Clara Schumann was a truly exceptional woman, not just a devoted wife to the composer Robert Schumann, but a groundbreaking musician in her own right. Over a period of 60 years she gave over 1500 concerts and determined the format of the kind of piano recital that is familiar to us today.

The narrative of I, Clara, drawn from letters and diaries, is interspersed with live performances of her works, and of music by Robert Schumann, Brahms, Liszt, Mendelssohn, and Chopin.

The narrator for this performance is the acclaimed actress, Joanna David.
