MR. AND MRS. SCHUMANN

Clara and Robert Schumann were the Romantic period’s most iconic couple. For them, music was an expression of their deepest thoughts and emotions and of their personal love-language. Excerpts from their love letters, read by Catherine Perrin, echo the pair of tenderly romantic chamber works on this program.
