When Clara is onstage at a solo piano concert Berthe appears in the wings holding a hungry crying baby. Clara races to the end of the piece so that she can dash off to feed the baby.
What piece is Clara playing and who wrote it? Please.
She's playing Carnval, Op. 9, by Robert Schumann. Clara skips the "Pause" movement and went straight into "Marche des Davidsbundler contre les Philistins."
shareI'm about 7 months late in saying "Thank you, Sikibunni".
shareThanks! That's what I came here to find out, I knew it was one of Robert's but not what.
Well, the city's being built and I'm winning this game. So don't interrupt us with trifles.
I think the piece that you are looking for is "Aveu" from Schumann's Carnaval, Op. 9.
And she also skips "Promenade" because of the baby.
