Brahms & the Schumanns

presented by Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra

Event Details

Love. Friendship. Passion.

A story of two friends brought together by music, and rumor has it, the woman they both loved: pianist and composer Clara Schumann. Johannes Brahms and Robert Schumann were icons of the Romantic era; creators of sweeping, achingly beautiful melodies and angsty punctuations of musical emotion that touch our souls centuries later. These two passionate works are joined by a brand-new piece written by composer Kenedea Lee and inspired by Clara Schumann.
