Plans are trickling in for a Clara Schumann celebration year in 2019, two centuries after she was born.

It could be a game-changer.

    A good way to become acquainted with Clara is to read Janice Galloway’s excellent biographical novel, Clara.

    When it was published, The Times said it contained ‘some of the greatest words ever written on thwarted love since Rome and Juliet’.
