Clara's Gift
Clara’s Gift – The Love and Life of Robert and Clara Schumann.
Leipzig 1840. Robert Schumann, an unknown composer, gives his beloved fiancée Clara Wieck a special gift on the eve of their long awaited wedding - a cycle of eight songs strangely foretelling the lovers’ own story, entitled Frauenliebe und Leben (A Woman’s Love and Life).
Sung here in glorious new English translations by Olivier Award nominee Elizabeth Mansfield, these beautiful, enigmatic songs illuminate the telling of Robert and Clara’s passionate and compelling story. A concert performance of Frauenliebe und Leben, sung in the original German, completes the evening.
Suitable for ages 14 and over.
