Clara and Robert. Fanny and Felix. Experience expressive songs from both brilliant, yet underrecognized composers —like Clara Schumann, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor—and artists who have traditionally defined the era—like Robert Schumann, Felix Mendelssohn, and Franz Schubert. Immerse yourself in hummable melodies and passionate lyrics in an evening that celebrates the beauty and diversity of Romantic choral music.
Join us for a Pre-Concert Conversation 1 hour before the concert!
