Synopsis

Album Description

"This addition to [Schumann?s] catalogue is timely and welcome. Micaela Gelius?s vibrant piano-playing delivers the strength, passion and élan of the solo pieces very well?and the string players, both full-blooded and sensitive, seem well matched with her and one another. ****" -BBC MUSIC Clara Wieck (1819-1896) was one of the most famous pianists of the 19th century. She was also a considerable composer, but in an era when women composers were not taken seriously she was fatally overshadowed by her husband, Robert Schumann. Recordings of her chamber music are rare and valuable, especially at this budget price.
