Clara Wieck Schumann’s place in history has long been overshadowed by the fame of her husband Robert Schumann, her main claim to fame was her (indeed superb) piano playing and concertizing. Her own compositions, though influenced by her contemporaries (notably her husband..), show an individual and original musical mind, both lyrical and passionate, in highly eloquent and often challenging pianism.
• Presented in this new recording are her Piano Sonata, Drei Romanzen Op.11, Soirees Musicales Op.6 and the Variations on a theme of Robert Schumann (the same theme as Brahms later used for his set of variations).
• Domenico Codispoti is one of the foremost Italian pianists of today.
Gyorgy Sandor said of him: “one of the finest young concert pianists I know. He has superb technical command, exceptionally fine taste in his interpretation and impressive maturity“. Bryce Morrison wrote in Gramophone: “he plays with a warmth and fervor worthy of Cortot himself. His sonority, too, has an Arrau-like fullness and richness”. Codispoti also recorded a full Cesar Franck (PCL0052) album for Piano Classics.
