Clara Schumann, the wife of composer Robert Schumann, may have been overshadowed by her famous husband, but for a woman in the mid-1800's she had an unprecedented career as composer and concert pianist. Her riveting story is brought to life in a one-woman show by pianist and actress Stephanie Wendt. She becomes Clara, using her words, her compositions and music by her luminary loved ones, Robert Schumann and Johannes Brahms. It is a story of love and loss, courage and frailty. It is a story that is old and new, and it is unforgettable.

Pianist Stephanie Wendt has performed to enthusiastic audiences on five continents. Passionate about sharing classical music with diverse audiences, she has performed in venues ranging from a maximum-security prison to Avery Fisher Hall in New York. Critics praise her power, finesse and spirit of adventure.
