I am so impressed by your art and your storytelling! I learned so much about Clara Schumann. She was even more amazing than I had realized. Nice job on your German too! This is excellently done. Great information!
I watched this to learn about Clara Schumann, and kept having trouble paying attention because I couldn't stop laughing and the drawings! Nicely done :)
Wish I could've done this for Music History II instead of a 20 page research paper!! I am currently using this video for my upper level students since she is our COM. Female composers rock!! Thanks for the awesome video, and nice research!
Vor ein paar Jahren hatte ich eine heftige Clara Schumann Phase. Das kam, weil ich mich mit ihrer Musik befasst hatte. Es ist absolut verständlich wieso Brahms sie vergöttert hat. Ich hab dann irgendwann aufgehört ihre Stücke zu hören, weil ich an einen Punkt kam, an dem ich sterben wollte, ihre Musik in den Ohren und darüber in meinem Herzen und meiner Seele. Clara Schumann ist ohne jede Frage "The Goat"
This was a fascinating history. It is sad that such a gifted pianist who started performing at such a young age, despite her early difficulties speaking and reading, still needed financial assistance from her friends as an adult, despite her successful concert career. And I thought that was a pattern of just US musicians, even those with great talent. Hopefully this will all change in the future.
In terms of her virtuosity, she resembled Liszt, but her approach to music was the antithesis of his showy pyrotechnics-her technique was always in the service of what the composer was trying to communicate.
Wonderful video! As visually interesting as it is informative, thank you! If you create another work on Clara, it would be interesting to explore the relationship between her and Liszt as she restarted her concert career later on. Very interesting and complex.
Thanks! And I love the minimal feature on Brahms lol. i know their >40 year “friendship or something more” story is extraordinary, but he also made her grieve a lot with his callous ways
A remarkably interesting life but one fraught with sadness and hardship. Quite a legacy though ❤ I enjoyed this and found it really informative thank you
I agree with Cynthia about your German! Your handwriting did not give away if you are German. Your lively drawings, quick passed writing, you did not talk about Brahms at all, except for mentioning his name! All together thanks sooo much for this brief description of Clara..
this is extremely well done. will there be more content from this channel ? my request would be chopin, but anything you want to do would be entertaining.
Clara hat nicht gemeinsam mit Robert einen Liedzyklus geschrieben. Zumindest wurde ihre Urheberschaft nicht angegeben. Ob Hannah Klein, die Schöpferin des ansonsten sehr gelungenen Videos dazu Quellen hat? I have found no evidence that there was a common work of a song cycle by Robert and Clara. True is, that he has dedicated one to his bride.
The song cycle they composed together was the 'Gedichte aus 'Liebesfrühling', where it is Clara's Op. 12 and Robert's Op. 37. There are 12 songs in total of that cycle and Clara wrote 3 of them.
Clara did burn her husband's works (the ones written after like, 1852), but she did not prohibit the performance of the already published ones. In fact we know Schumann today is because Clara popularised his music by performing it publicly and encouraging other pianists to do so, and as well editing his works that was published at the Breitkopf & Härtel publishing house.
arguably the greatest stick-figure pianist of all time
After looking at that schedule, I am convinced that Clara was really Ling Ling in disguise.

Thank you...I enjoyed this and learned a great deal.
Thank you 🙏 for giving people information of Clara Schumann.
She was extraordinarily. The female Liszt. Or was Franz the male Clara Schumann :)
In terms of her virtuosity, she resembled Liszt, but her approach to music was the antithesis of his showy pyrotechnics-her technique was always in the service of what the composer was trying to communicate.
@@vinista256 So well said!
@@vinista256 exactly
@@jmbechtel too bad Edison invented the phonograph a bit too late for recordings of these fantastic pianists… :)
Thanks for this education piece! I loved everything about it!
Thank you this was very interesting

My favorite piano composer behind Chopin!
Nothing about Clara and Brahms ?
Merci for shining a light on her life.
Charming! Thank you

This was so useful for my studies. Thank you!

Such a stunning wonderful powerful women
A real rolemodel

Wow! She had it hard!
She looked like Marie Curie
Oh to have what clara and schuman had

Poor Clara. It's what happens when you're born into a German family. Then you marry into a German family 🤣 Ich danke sich sehr für die aufklärung.

"Editing her late husband's works". That's quite a polite way of saying "destroying or banning performance of her late husband's works".
Clara did burn her husband's works (the ones written after like, 1852), but she did not prohibit the performance of the already published ones. In fact we know Schumann today is because Clara popularised his music by performing it publicly and encouraging other pianists to do so, and as well editing his works that was published at the Breitkopf & Härtel publishing house.
Felix was a girl???? That's news. I wonder how Felix Mendelssohn felt having a girl named after him? lol
