Brahms and Clara, the fertile geniuses

Jean-Despréz Hall, Maison du Citoyen
25 Rue Laurier, Gatineau, QC, Canada
String quartet and piano

Program
Quintet for piano and string quartet op 34 – Johannes Brahms
Trio for violin, cello and piano op 17 – Clara Schumann

A concert of the most profound and touching romantic chamber music there is.
Clara Schumann was a virtuoso pianist, the wife of a genius composer, Robert Schumann, and the mentor of another genius composer, Johannes Brahms. She was also a composer, discreet perhaps, but the equal of these two giants. In particular, she played a crucial role in the completion of the Brahms Piano Quintet, one of his greatest achievements.

Tickets are available at the door the night of the concert or online.
