Brahms: Liebeslieder Walzer for choir and piano duet Part songs by Robert Schumann and Clara Schumann
Conductor: Steven Grahl
Piano: Sam Mitchell and Gavin Roberts
When Brahms moved to Vienna, he poured out his hopes and dreams to the rhythm of a waltz. His bittersweet Lieberslieder Walzer are the singing, swinging heart of a concert that positively glows with romance, as the University of Oxford’s premier chamber choir Schola Cantorum explores the private, intensely poetic musical world of the two people who meant more to Brahms than anyone else: Robert and Clara Schumann.
