About
I, Clara tells the extraordinary life story of Clara Schumann in her own words. It follows two other Composer Portraits, created by Lucy Parham, of Debussy and Rachmaninoff, which were performed at the Barnes Music Festival in previous years. The narrative, drawn from letters and diaries, is interspersed with live performances of her works, and of music by Robert Schumann, Brahms, Liszt, Felix Mendelssohn, Fanny Mendelssohn and Chopin.
