A lunchtime date with Clara Schumann

Marking the 200th birthday of the composer and pianist at NUIG

CLARA SCHUMANN kept first rate company when it came to musicians - she was married to Robert Schumann and was friends with Johannes Brahms. She was also a superb composer and pianist in own right.

Music by Clara, as well as Brahms, Mendelssohn (another friend of the Schumanns ), and Beethoven, will be performed by cellist Thomas-Michael Auner and pianist Maximilian Flieder, at a lunchtime concert, hosted by Music For Galway, on Wednesday March 27 at 1.05pm in the Emily Anderson Concert Hall, NUI Galway. This year marks the 200th anniversary of Clara's birth.
