Synopsis

Product Description
A beautifully programmed collection anchored by the strength of Ragna Schirmers piano. Clara and Robert Schumann borrow from each others compositions in the early years of their great love affair in two sets of playfully intimate variations. Twenty years later, the theme is woven anew into two more sets of variations: a revisitation on the theme by Clara Schumann and one by her friend Johannes Brahms. Performing on an original Bluthner grand piano of 1856, Ragna Schirmers long association with the music of both Clara and Robert deepens the sense of rediscovery of these rarely recorded works for the listener.
