IMOGEN COOPER
MUSICA VIVA
18 August 7pm and 23 August 2pm.
One of the greatest pianists of her generation, Imogen Cooper CBE makes a long overdue return to Australia for this special tour. Get swept away by Cooper as she takes you through the romantic and musical landscape of Brahms, Schubert and Schumann.
Most of the music on the program focuses on the extraordinary musical and emotional kinship between Clara and Robert Schumann and their friend and protégé Johannes Brahms – and in particular on Clara, another ground-breaking female pianist. Imogen is looking forward to her first full recital tour in Australia.
