The story

Clara Schumann: A Girl and Her Piano

Hello! My name is Clara. A long time ago, in the year 1819, I was born. When I was a little girl, my very best friend was a big, beautiful piano. My father, Friedrich, taught me how to play. My fingers would dance across the black and white keys, making happy sounds fill the room. I loved playing music more than anything!

As I grew, I traveled to faraway places to play my piano for lots of people. It made me so happy to see them smile when I played my songs! I also wrote my own music. I met a wonderful man named Robert who loved music just like me, and we got married. Our home was always filled with songs, music, and our wonderful children.

I played the piano for many, many years, for my whole life. I lived a long time and passed away in the year 1896. I lived to be 76 years old. Even though I am no longer here, my music is! People today still play the songs I wrote and the beautiful music my husband Robert created. It makes me happy to know our music is still making the world a more beautiful place.
