"The intense relationships between Robert Schumann, his wife Clara, and Johannes Brahms are brought to vivid life through music and excerpts from their passionate writings. With the arrival of the young, dynamic Brahms into their household, the Schumanns' fragile marriage is threatened by the deepening bond between Clara and their gifted guest. "This is a beautifully put - together portrait... Kleenex required" says The Guardian (London).
Recorded before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center, Los Angeles, in December 2008.

"Throughout his life, Franz Liszt burned the candle at both ends. A child prodigy who became the greatest keyboard virtuoso of his time, he was also a prolific composer, whose output ranged from hundreds of piano pieces to symphonies, tone poems, and songs. Pianist Lucy Parham compiled Liszt's colorful letters and performs some of his most ecstatic piano music to depict his tempestuous relationships with the two most important women in his life.
Includes a piece about the phenomenon of Lisztomania with UCLA Professor Robert Winter.
Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center in December 2008.
