Thomas Carroll and the Orpheus Sinfonia at Cadogan Hall |
At St George's Church, Hanover Square on 23 March 2015, they present Love Triangle. During the first half of the concert excerpts from symphonies by Schumann and Brahms and Schumann's Cello Concerto (whose slow movement includes a motif depicting Clara's name), are interleaved with readings of the letters between them, forming a picture of their very different personalities. The second half consists of a complete performance of Brahms's first symphony. Clara and Robert Schumann greatly supported Brahms and encouraged him to write a symphony.
